 The engine is the source of power for the vehicle
 It converts the energy stored in fuel into motion
Engine Operation
 Fuel is burned inside the engine’s combustion
chamber to produce heat
 Heat causes expansion of gases in the engine
 Expansion in the combustion chamber produces
pressure
 Engine components convert pressure into rotating
motion
Chapter 7. Main Components
Internal Combustion Engines
Cylinder Block- The Cylinder block is the main supporting structure
for the various component
Engine Block

Forms the main body of the engine

Engine

Block Parts
Cylinders
 large, round holes machined through the block
 Water jackets
 coolant passages through the block
 allow a solution of water and antifreeze to cool
the cylinders
Engine Block Parts
 Core (freeze) plugs
 round metal plugs that seal holes left in the block
after casting
 Main bearing bores
 holes machined in the bottom of the block to
hold the crankshaft
 Main caps
 hold the crankshaft and main bearing inserts in
place
IC Engine Components
Cylinder – It is a cylindrical vessel or space in which the piston makes
reciprocating motion.
IC Engine Components
Piston – It is a cylindrical component fitted into the cylinder
IC Engine Components
Inlet and exhaust Valves - – It is commonly mushroom shape d
poppet type.
IC Engine Components
Spark Plug - – It is the component that initiates the combustion
process in Spark Ignition (SI) Engines.
IC Engine Components
Intake Manifold- – It is The pipe which connects the intake system to the inlet
valve and through which air fuel mixture is drawn to the cylinder.
IC Engine Components
Exhaust Manifold- – It is the pipe which connects the exhaust system to the exhaust
valve of the engine and through which the the product of combustion escape into the
atmosphere.
IC Engine Components
Piston Rings - – It provide a tight seal between piston and the cylinder
wall thus preventing leakage of combustion gases..
IC Engine Components
Gudgeon Pin - – It forms the link between the small end of the
connecting rod and the piston..
IC Engine Components
Connecting Rods - – It interconnects the piston and the crankshaft .

.
IC Engine Components
Crankshaft - – It converts the reciprocating motion of the piston into
useful rotary motion of the output shaft.
IC Engine Components
Combustion chamber – It is the space enclosed in the upper part of the
cylinder , by the cylinder head and the piston top during combustion process.
IC Engine Components
camshaft- – Its associated parts control the opening and closing of the
two valves.
IC Engine Components
Cams- – It is made as integral parts of the camshaft and are designed
in such away to open the valves in correct timing.
IC Engine Components
Flywheel- – It is attached to the output shaft in order to achieve a
uniform torque .
