Basic engine education is much like basic sex education: There are hundreds of well-written, informative books on the subject but only a handful of the interested people are willing to expend the time ...

Chinese researchers have published peer-reviewed work on a series-hybrid propulsion system designed for compound-wing ...

Both gasoline-burning engines and diesel engines produce power through a process of internal combustion. However, the latter are usually larger, louder, and often dirtier. While many people may not ...

The original concept of combustion engines as we understand them dates as far back as the late 1800s. And while they are more or less a solved science today, they definitely didn't start that way.

Regardless of whether it burns gasoline or diesel, your internal combustion engine works by igniting a mixture of fuel and air to create power. To do so effectively, it must reduce the detrimental ...

A better mousetrap? Even now, as electrification seems poised to end the internal combustion engine’s long run as the transportation motivator of choice, enterprising tinkerers continue to propose ...

It is quite ironic that internal combustion engines (ICEs) have remained basically the same for more than one hundred years. It is only now – when they are allegedly on the verge of disappearing – ...

Last month we began a new series on the basic operation of the internal combustion engine. We realize that many of our readers may be new to the high-performance scene and do not fully understand the ...
