INTRODUCTION
Perhaps the invention of the engine, or even introducing its concept, was the most important
scientific event in the human history. Replacing the horse carriage by the automobile or the
horse-less carriage, as it was initially called, was an event that increased the distance human
beings can endeavor into space. Engines are basic mechanical engineering devices, and they
have variety of applications in moving and non-moving machines.

COURSE OBJECTIVES
The objective of Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) is to provide the knowledge of operation of
ICE and its different kinds based on the operation mechanism, specially the two stroke and four
stroke engines to the students. It also involves the thermodynamics relations that govern the
processes of these engines, highlighting two main important cycles, which are: Otto Cycle and
Diesel cycles. Thus, it uses both cycles to introduce the second categorization of ICE based on
the thermodynamic relations; introducing Gasoline engines and Diesel engines.

LEARNING OUTCOMES
CO1: Compare the working of 4-S & 2-S for both SI & CI.
CO2: Design the model of conventional engines.
CO3: Solve & analyze the performance parameters.
CO4: Describe the alternate fuels in IC engines.
CO5: Judge the process of fuel supply & Injection system.
CO6: Select & analyze the different parts of conventional engines.

SUBJECT IMPORTANCE w.r.t. COURSE UNDERTAKEN

It is a lightweight and reasonably compact way to get power from fuel. It is also significantly
safer and more efficient than the engine it replaced - steam. Even today, it has better power-to-
weight ratio - still - than electric batteries and motors, and offers similar overall efficiency.
Small, lightweight IC engines made personal transportation possible. It transformed how we
built cities and did business. Later, powered aircraft brought the world closer, creating a more
interconnected world society.

COURSE CONTENTS/READING & PROBLEM ASSIGNMENTS

The course contents, with a lecture wise break-up, reading and problem assignments, are given
on the attached sheet. I may or may not necessarily use the methodology or the approach
followed in the text book referenced above. However, it is strongly recommended that the
students buy the text book and read the appropriate material (topics) conscientiously
before coming to class.

GRADING
The following shall be the grading scheme for this course:
Short-quizzes (according to hand-out) 5%
2 Mid- Semester Exams 40%
1 End- Semester Exam 50%
Home Assignments 5%
All graded answer books (exams, quizzes, assignments) shall be made available to the students-
under the policy of transparency that will be followed in this course. Your grade in this course
is in your hands- you will make it or break it!

ABSENCE FROM CLASS

It is strongly recommended that you do not miss any of my classes- if you miss one of my
classes, it will become difficult for you to catch up with me; if you miss two of my lectures in a
row, you will find it extremely difficult to come up to the level of the class; and, if you happen
to miss three of my classes, it will become almost impossible! Also, you never know what you
may miss which you may regret later. PLEASE ATTEND ALL CLASSES.
I emphasize punctuality also- if I can be on time, so you can! Also, it is unfair to your fellow
students who are on time and disrupts the class causing distractions and disturbing the train of
thoughts. No late-comers will be allowed to attend my lectures. PLEASE BE ON TIME.
No make-up for missed short quizzes or exams will be allowed except in extenuating
circumstances, with prior permission of the instructor(s), and the decision of the instructor(s) in
this regard shall be final.

ASSIGNMENTS

Home and class assignments are an integral part of this course- you can only learn by doing!
All home work has been pre-assigned lecture wise (see following pages) and is due at the start
of the following lecture from the one in which it is assigned, in the format as explained on the
next sheet. No late assignments handed in after the due date shall be accepted under any
circumstances. It is expected that the students shall work on the assignments independently and
not copy the solution from each other- this is for your own good! Otherwise, beware!!!!
Note: All assignments are to be done in pencil, only on one side of every sheet, and are to be
handed in on A4 size white paper in the following format;
Assignment No:
Name: Page: 1/ (total pages)
