1. Introduction:
1.2) IC Engine:
Page | 1
Figure 1. Internal Combustion Engine
A. Based on Cycle:
- Otto Cycle (Spark Ignition): This cycle is used in gasoline (petrol) engines.
It consists of four processes: intake, compression, power, and exhaust. A
spark plug ignites the air-fuel mixture at the end of the compression stroke.

B. Based on Fuel Type:
- Gasoline (Petrol) Engines: These engines run on gasoline and use spark
plugs to ignite the air-fuel mixture.
- Diesel Engines: Diesel engines use diesel fuel and rely on high
compression to ignite the air-fuel mixture without spark plugs.
- Gas Engines: These engines use natural gas or other gaseous fuels as
their primary fuel source. They are often used in applications where natural
gas is abundant.
C. Based on Arrangement:
D. Based on Application:
IC engines are also classified based on the application they are designed
for:

- Marine Engines: Designed for use in ships and boats, marine engines are
built to withstand the harsh conditions of marine environments.
- Aircraft Engines: These engines are designed to power airplanes and are
optimized for high power-to-weight ratios and efficient operation at high
altitudes.
A. Intake Stroke:
- The piston starts at the top of its cylinder (top dead center or TDC).
- The intake valve opens, and the piston moves down the cylinder (moves
towards bottom dead center or BDC).
- The intake valve allows a mixture of air and fuel to enter the cylinder
from the intake manifold.
B. Compression Stroke:
Page | 4
- The piston moves back up the cylinder, compressing the air-fuel
mixture.
C. Power Stroke:
D. Exhaust Stroke:
- After the power stroke, the exhaust valve opens, and the piston moves
up the cylinder.
- The rising piston pushes the burnt exhaust gases out of the cylinder and
into the exhaust manifold.
- The cycle is completed, and the engine is ready for the next intake
stroke.
A. Cylinder Block:
- The cylinder block forms the main structure of the engine. It houses the
cylinders where the combustion process takes place.
B. Cylinder Head:
- It contains intake and exhaust ports, spark plugs (in gasoline engines),
and valves that control the flow of air and exhaust gases in and out of the
cylinders.
C. Pistons:
- They are connected to the crankshaft via connecting rods and convert
the pressure generated by the combustion process into mechanical motion.
D. Connecting Rods:
Page | 6
- They transmit the reciprocating motion of the pistons into rotary motion
of the crankshaft.
E. Crankshaft:
- The crankshaft is a rotating shaft that converts the linear motion of the
pistons into rotary motion.
F. Camshaft:
- The camshaft controls the opening and closing of the engine's intake
and exhaust valves.
- It is driven by the crankshaft and has lobes or cams that actuate the
valves through a series of mechanisms (pushrods, rocker arms, or directly).
G. Valves:
- Valves control the flow of air and exhaust gases in and out of the
combustion chamber.
- Intake valves allow fresh air (and fuel in gasoline engines) to enter the
cylinder, and exhaust valves allow burned gases to exit.
H. Piston Rings:
- Piston rings are placed around the pistons and help seal the combustion
chamber.
I. A gudgeon pin:
- It connects the piston to the connecting rod, allowing the piston to move
within the cylinder while transmitting the force generated during combustion
to the connecting rod.

1.6) Finite Element Analysis Method:
Finite Element Analysis (FEA) is a powerful numerical method used in
engineering and applied sciences to solve complex physical problems. It's
a simulation technique that divides a complex geometry or physical domain
into smaller, simpler elements, allowing engineers and researchers to
analyze how the system behaves under various conditions. FEA is widely
used for structural analysis, heat transfer, fluid flow, electromagnetics, and
more. Detailed overview of the Finite Element Analysis method:
A. Problem Formulation:
- The first step is to define the problem you want to analyze. This includes
specifying the geometry, material properties, boundary conditions, and the
type of analysis required (structural, thermal, etc.).
B. Discretization:
C. Element Types:
D. Mesh Generation:
Page | 8
E. Governing Equations:
F. Assembly:
- The equations for all elements are assembled into a global system of
equations that represents the behavior of the entire structure or system.
This system of equations is often large and sparse.
G. Solution:
H. Post-Processing:
