   Internal combustion engines have to effectively manage the exhaust of the cooled combustion gas from the engine. The exhaust system frequently contains devices to control both chemical and noise pollution. In addition, for cyclic combustion engines the exhaust system is frequently tuned to improve emptying of the combustion chamber.

   Screen type spark arresters use a physical mesh to prevent large particles from leaving the exhaust system. This is the simplest and most common type of spark arrester. Screen type devices are used on most motorcycles, ATVs, and small engines.

5. Crankcase ventilation system - Wikipedia

   Dry sump engines in some drag racing cars use scavenging pumps to extract oil and gases from the crankcase. [18] A separator removes the oil, then the gases are fed into the exhaust system via a venturi tube. [citation needed]. This system maintains a small amount of vacuum in the crankcase and minimises the amount of oil in the engine that ...

   In 1879, Nicolaus Otto manufactured and sold a double expansion engine (the double and triple expansion principles had ample usage in steam engines), with two small cylinders at both sides of a low-pressure larger cylinder, where a second expansion of exhaust stroke gas took place; the owner returned it, alleging poor performance.
