Definition of ICE
Single-Cylinder
One piston
Multiple-Cylinder
More than one piston
(3, 4, 6, 8, 12)
According to the Drive
Shaft Position
Horizontal Drive Shaft
– Drive shaft is in
horizontal position Horizontal Drive
Shaft
while the piston is
upward position
Vertical shaft – The
drive shaft is vertical
position while the
piston is in sideward
position
Cylinder Sleeve
Cylinder Block
Piston
Valve
Engine Pump
Fuel Injector
Connecting Rod
Crankshaft
Crankshaft – It receives power from the piston
and transmit it to the other parts to do useful
work
Piston Rings (compression and oil rings) – it
retain compression, reduce cylinder wall contact
thereby reducing friction losses and wear
Piston pin – it joins the connecting rod and the
piston
Flywheel – it is the energy storage device of the
engine to keep it at uniform speed when the
crankshaft is not receiving power to the piston
Crankcase – it encloses and supports the
crankshaft and serves as reservoir for the
lubricating oil
Engine Subsystems
Ignition System – responsible for supplying heat
for combustion of fuel
Fuel System – responsible for supplying fuel in
the combustion chamber
Starting System – responsible to starting-on the
engine
Cooling System – responsible to keep the
temperature of the engine lower
Exhaust System – responsible to discharge
combustible gases from the combustion chamber
Transmission System – responsible for transfering
the power generated from the combustion
chamber to the drive shaft

Engine Terminology
Bore – size of the opening of the cylinder
almost equal to the the diameter of the piston
plus the rings
Stroke – distance traveled by a piston from
the TDC to the BDC
Top Dead Center (TDC) – the uppermost
position of the piston during the compression
and exhaust stroke
Bottom Dead Center (BDC) – the lowest most
position of the piston during the intake and
power stroke
Engine Displacement (PD) – volume displaced
by a piston in one stroke
Clearance Volume (CV) – volume in the
combustion cylinder when the piston is at the
TDC position
Compression Ratio (CR) – ratio of the total
volume to the clearance volume
Mean Effective Pressure (MEP) – amount of
pressure generated during the power stroke of
the engine
Revolution – one complete rotation of the
crankshaft
Cycle – series of event occurring one after the
other in a definite order and repeats the event
after the last one has occurred
Firing Order – The sequence of piston power
in multiple cylinder in delivering the power
stroke
Indicated Horsepower – the power generated
at the combustion chamber
Brake Horsepower – power available at the
drive shaft or the crankshaft of an engine
Friction Horsepower – power loss due to
friction of piston and other component parts
of the engine
Rated Horsepower – power as specified by
the manufacturers
Mechanical Efficiency – ratio of the brake
horsepower and the indicated horsepower
Thermal Efficiency – ratio of the brake
horsepower to the power available at the fuel
Firing Order – sequence of delivering of
power stroke by the piston in multi-cylinder
engine
Specific fuel consumption – amount of fuel
consumed by brake horsepower of the engine
Cycle of Events
Intake Stroke – fuel and air or air alone is suck in
the combustion chamber as the piston moves in
downward direction
Compression Stroke – fuel and air or air is
compressed by the piston as it moves in upward
direction
Power Stroke – fuel and air is ignited to produce
power at the downward movement of the piston
and transmitted it into the crankshaft of the
engine
Exhaust Stroke – burn fuel and gases is
discharged from the combustion chamber
Downward Stroke – fuel and air mixture enters
Upward Stroke – fuel and air compressed
Downward Stroke – spark plug ignite and produced power
Upward Stroke – burn gases is discharged
Note: There are two rotations of the crank shaft to produce power
Downward Stroke – air enters the combustion chamber
Upward Stroke – air is compressed by the piston to raise its
temperature enough to burn fuel
Downward Stroke – fuel is injected to produced power
Upward Stroke – burn gases is discharged
Note: There are two rotations of the crank shaft to produce power
Upward Stroke – Compression
Downward Stroke – Power, Exhaust, and Intake

IHP = --------------
33000 c
BHP = IHP x m or
= IHP - FHP
Given: IHP = 69 Hp
BHP = 54 Hp
Required: Mechanical Efficiency
Solution:
Mech Eff = BHP / IHP
= 54 Hp / 69 Hp
= 78.26%
The engine fuel tank was completely
filled with gasoline fuel before testing.
After 4 hours of continuous test 3.7
liters of fuel was used to reload the
tank completely. Test has shown that
the engine shaft power was 10 hp.
What is the specific fuel consumption
of the engine?
Given: Fuel - gasoline
Operating time - 4 hours
Fuel consumed - 3.7 liters
Shaft power - 10 horsepower
Required: Specific fuel consumption
Solution:
SFC = (3. 7 liters x 0.743 kg/liter gasoline x 1000 g / kg) /
(4 hours x 10 hp x 0.746 kW/hp)
= 92.13 g/kW-hr
An engine was tested on a
brake dynamometer at a speed
of 2000 rpm. The brake arm of
the machine is 1.2 meters and it
registered a load of 5 kg. What
is the shaft power of the
engine?
It gives the
physical
features and
performance
characteristics
of an engine in
terms of power,
fuel
consumption,
and efficiency
