COURSE SYLLABUS
INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE
First Semester, AY 2018-2019
COURSE DESCRIPTION:
This course ME 413, Internal Combustion Engine deals with principles and
processes involved in combustion of fuels in an Internal Combustion Engine. The
course covers the definition and function of a Heat Engine, its components,
classification, theories and concepts used for its analysis and application to
automotive industry. It also involves fundamentals and basic concept of different
Thermodynamic Air Standard Cycles such as Carnot, Otto, Diesel, Dual etc.
