 Abstract

The aim of this research is to introduce the fundamentals of Combustion

Engineering. The research traces the mechanism of operation of Internal
Combustion Engine (ICE) and its different kinds based on the operation
mechanism, specially the two stroke and four stroke engines. It also involves the
History and the personages of the Combustion Engineering, the Combustion Fuels
(which are Gaseous, Liquid and Solid Fuels), the Application of Combustions and
the thermodynamics relations that govern the processes of these engines,
highlighting two main important cycles, which are: Otto Cycle and Diesel cycles.
Thus, it uses both cycles to introduce the second categorization of ICE based on
the thermodynamic relations; introducing Gasoline engines and Diesel engines.
Whenever possible, this research is refers to current and future developments in
this field.
