In this video, I take on an exciting engineering challenge: combining two internal combustion engines into a single ...

In a single-cylinder engine, the ability to homogenize and maintain the fuel-air blend prior to and during the burn is a classic combustion-engine problem. Add additional cylinders, and introduce ...

Ferrari is exploring a groundbreaking approach to the internal combustion engine, as revealed by a recent European patent filing. Departing from the industry-standard round pistons, this new design ...

Ford once sketched a road where an engine's pistons never saw oil and engines ran hotter on purpose. In a late‑1980s patent application filed and granted in Europe, the company described an "uncooled ...

In a conventional application, there are three rings per piston. The top ring is called the compression ring. Its purpose is to seal the combustion gas pressure, transfer heat from the piston to the ...

There is probably no better chronicler into the full depth of American ingenuity than YouTube. Here one finds not just computer models for all manner of esoteric combustion engine designs, but actual ...

YouTube channel Warped Perception added a glass head to a combustion engine and recorded it running with a super slow motion camera. The footage captured shows the valves injecting fuel and air. A ...

According to fleet executives as well as fleet maintenance managers, the death of the internal combustion engine may prove to be greatly exaggerated in spite of the excitement about electric ...

Your car and your motorboat both rely on engines to move, but both vehicles use very different types of engines in order to ...

Dimpled pistons might sound strange, but some say they could be the future for diesel power. We've looked at the arguments ...

At the Low net-GHG Fuel and Engine Technologies Symposium at the University of Wisconsin in June, researchers noted that the life of familiar internal combustion engines may be extended. This will ...

Half a dozen countries, including the U.K. and possibly also Germany, have now laid out plans to ban gas- and diesel-powered vehicles, while tough U.S. and Chinese emissions and mileage standards are ...
