The course provides a comprehensive insight into the matter of teh internal combustion (IC) engines (theoretical cycles, actual process, engine systems, operating characteristics). It is intended for students at the Department for IC engines, as an introduction to a deeper study of specific areas of internal combustion engines, as well as students of those fields where knowledge of IC engines as a propulsion unit (motor vehicles, shipbuilding, railway engineering, mechanization) is necessary.

Adopted theoretical and practical knowledge in the field of engines. Connecting fundamental disciplines: thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, mechanics, material resistance, etc. on a complex object such as the internal combustion engine. Acquiring the skills for a competent approach in the selection, organization of operation and maintenance of engines. Acquiring a base for further study of specific problems, construction and design of engines.

1. Introductory considerations. 2. Thermodynamic: engine cycles. 3. Actual engine duty cycle - the process of changing the working substance. 4. Combustion process in engines with external ignition of the mixture. 5. Combustion process in diesel engines. 6. Engine operating parameters. 7. Charging the internal combustion engine. 8. Dynamic engine problems. 9. Engine drive characteristics. 10. Environmental characteristics of the engine

Exercises: 1. Engine mechanism and typical engine construction 2. Engine working fluid and combustion 3. Thermodynamic: engine cycles - calculation tasks 4. Engine fuel supply systems 5. Operating parameters and heat balance of the engine - calculation tasks 6. Filling and heat balance of engines - calculation tasks 7. Kinematics and dynamics of engine mechanism - calculation tasks 8. Engine systems 9. Engine characteristics - calculation tasks 10. Preparation of laboratory exercise from engine testing. Laboratory exercises: 1. Engine fuel supply systems 2. Test engine test bench run.
