• Semester 5, position 5

The aims of the course are to provide a comprehensive insight into the subject matter of Internal Combustion Engines (theoretical operating cycle, real operating cycle, engine systems, engine operating characteristics). It is intended for students of the Internal Combustion Engines module as an in‐depth introduction into studies of specific areas of Internal Combustion Engines, as well as for students of modules which require knowledge of Internal Combustion Engines as a power unit (Motor vehicles, Naval Architecture, Railway Mechanical Engineering, and Material Handling, Constructions and Logistics).

Acquired theoretical and practical knowledge of Internal Combustion Engines. The ability to link fundamental engineering branches of thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, mechanics, strength of materials etc. into a complex unit such as engine. The ability of competent approach to engine selection, organization of exploitation and maintenance. Acquisition of solid base for tackling specific problems, design and construction of Internal Combustion Engines.

1. Introductory considerations. 2. Analysis of engine ideal thermodynamic cycles. 3. Engine real operating cycle: gas exchange process. 4. Combustion process in SI Engines. 5. Combustion process in CI Engines. 6. Engine working parameters 7. Engine supercharging. 8. Engine dynamic problems. 9. Engine operating characteristics. 10. Engine ecological problems.
