`PERSPECTIVE
`
`The purpose of internal combustion engines is the production of mechanical
`power from the chemical energy contained in the fuel. In internal cornbustion
`engines, as distinct from external combustion engines, this energy is released by
`burning or oxidizing the fuel inside the engine; The fuel-air mixture before com-
`bustion and the burned products after combustion are the actual working fluids.
`The work transfers which provide the desired power output occur directly
`between these working fluids and the mechanical components of the engine. The
`internal combustion engines which are the subject of this book are spark-ignition
`engines (sometimes called Otto engines, or gasoline or petrol engines,
`though
`other fuels can be used) and compression-ignition or diesel enginesrr Because of
`their simplicity, ruggedness and high power/weight ratio,
`these two types of
`engine have found wide application in transportation (land, sea, and air) and
`power generation. It is the fact that combustion takes place inside the work-

`
`TThe gas turbine is also, by this definition, an “ internal combustion engine.“ Conventionally,
`howaver, the term is used for spark—ignition and compression-ignition engines. The operating prin-
`ciples of gas turbines are fundamentally different, and they are not discussed as separate engines in
`this book.

`
`INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE FUNDAMENTALS
`
`producing part of these engines that makes their design and operating character—
`istics fundamentally different from those of other types of engine.
`Practical heat engines have served mankind for over two and a half cen-
`turies. For the first 150 years, water, raised to steam, was interposed between the
`combustion gases produced by burning the fuel and the work-producing piston-
`in-cylinder expander. It was not until the 1860s that the internal combustion
`engine became a practical realityl' 1 The early engines developed for commercial
`use burned coal-gas air mixtures at atmospheric pressure-“there was no com-
`pression before combustion. J. J. E..Lenoir (1822—1900) developed the first mar-
`ketable engine of this type. Gas and air were drawn into the cylinder during the
`first half of the piston stroke. The charge was then ignited with a spark, the
`pressure increased, and the burned gases then delivered power to the piston for
`the second half of the stroke. The cycle was completed with an exhaust stroke.
`Some 5000 of these engines were built between 1860 and 1865 in sizes up to six
`horsepower. Efficiency was at best about 5 percent.
`A more successful development—an atmospheric engine introduced in 1867
`by Nicolaus A. Otto (1832—1891) and Eugen Langen (1833—1895}—used the pres-
`sure rise resulting from combustion of the fuel-air charge early in the outward
`stroke to accelerate a free piston and rack assembly so its momentum would
`generate a vacuum in the cylinder. Atmospheric preSSure then pushed the piston
`inward, with the rack engaged through a roller clutch to the output shaft. Pro-
`duction engines, of which about 5000 were built, obtained thermal efficiencies of
`up to 11 percent. A slide valve controlled intake, ignition by a gas flame, and
`exhaust.
`To overcome this engine’s shortcomings of low thermal efficiency and
`excessive weight, Otto proposed an engine cycle with four piston strokes: an
`intake stroke, then a compression stroke before ignition, an expansion or power
`stroke where work was delivered to the crankshaft, and finally an exhaust stroke.
`He also proposed incorporating a stratifiedrcharge induction system, though this
`was not achieved in practice. His prototype four-stroke engine first ran in 1876. A
`comparison between the Otto engine and its atmospheric-type predecessor indi-
`cates the reason for its success (see Table 1.1): the enormous reduction in engine
`weight and volume. This was the breakthrough that effectively founded the inter-
`nal combustion engine industry. By 1890, almost 50,000 of these engines had
`been sold in Europe and the United States.
`In 1884, an unpublished French patent issued in 1362 to Alphonse Beau de
`Rochas (1815—1893) was found which described the principles of the four-stroke
`cycle. This chance discovery cast doubt on the validity of Otto’s own patent for
`this concept, and in Germany it was declared invalid. Beau dc Rochas also out-
`lined the conditions under which maximum efficiency in an internal combustion
`
`engine could be achieved. These were:
`
`l. The largest possible cylinder volume with the minimum boundary surface
`2. The greatest possible working speed

`3. The greatest possible expansion ratio
`4. The greatest possible pressure at the beginning of expansion
`
`The first two conditions hold heat losses from the charge to a minimum. The
`third condition recognizes that the greater‘the expansion of the postcombustion
`gases, the greater the work extracted. The fourth condition recognizes that higher
`initial pressures make greater expansion possible, and give higher pressures
`throughout the process, both resulting in greater work transfer. Although Beau
`de Rochas’ unpublished writings predate Otto’s developments, he never reduced
`these ideas to practice. Thus Otto, in the broader sense, was the inventor of the
`modern internal combustion engine as we know it today.
`Further developments followed fast once the full impact of what Otto had
`achieved became apparent. By the 18805 several engineers (e.g., Dugald Clerk,
`1854—1913, and James Robson, 1833—1913, in England and Karl Benz, 1844—
`1929, in Germany) had successfully developed two-stroke internal combustion
`engines where the exhaust and intake processes occur during the end of the
`power stroke and the beginning of the compression stroke. James Atkinson
`(1346—1914) in England made an engine with a longer expansion than compres-
`sion stroke, which had a high efficiency for the times but mechanical weaknesses.
`It was recognized that efficiency was a direct function of expansion ratio, yet
`compression ratios were limited to less than four if serious knock problems were
`to be avoided with the available fuels. Substantial carburetor and ignition system
`deveIOpments were required, and occurred, before high-speed gasoline engines
`suitable for automobiles became available in the late 1880s. Stationary engine
`progress also continued. By the late 18903, large single-cylinder engines of 1.3-m
`bore fueled by low-energy blast furnace gas produced 600 bhp at 90 rev/min. In
`Britain, legal restrictions on volatile fuels turned their engine builders toward
`kerosene. Low compression ratio “oil ” engines with heated external fuel vapor-
`izers and electric ignition were developed with efficiencies comparable to those of
`gas engines (14 to 18 percent). The Hornsby~Ackroyd engine became the most

`
`INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE FUNDAMENTALS
`
`popular oil engine in Britain, and was also built in large numbers in the United
`States.2
`'
`'
`In 1892, the German engineer Rudolf Diesel (1858—1913) outlined in his
`patent a new form of internal combustion engine. His concept of initiating com-
`bustion by injecting a liquid fuel into air heated solely by compression permitted
`a doubling of efficiency over other internal combustion engines. Much greater
`expansion ratios, without detonation or knock, were now pessible. However,
`even with the efforts of Diesel and the resources of MAN. in Ausburg combined,
`it took fiVc years to develop a practical engine.
`Engine developments, perhaps less fundamental but nonetheless important
`to the steadily widening internal combustion engine markets, have continued ever
`since?” One more recent major development has been the rotary internal com-
`bustion engine. Although a wide variety of experimental rotary engines have been
`proposed over the years,5 the first practical rotary internal combustion engine,
`the Wankel, was not successfully tested until 1957. That engine, which evolved
`through many years of research and development, was based on the designs of
`the German inventor Felix Wankelfi- 7
`
`Fuels have also had a major impact on engine development. The earliest
`engines used for generating mechanical power burned gas. Gasoline, and lighter
`fractions of crude oil, became available in the late 18005 and various types of
`carburetors were developed to vaporize the fuel and mix it with air. Before 1905
`there were few problems with gasoline; though compression ratios were low (4 or
`less) to avoid knock, the highly volatile fuel made starting easy and gave good
`cold weather performance. However, a serious crude oil shortage developed, and
`to meet the fivefold increase in gasoline demand between 1907 and 1915, the yield
`from crude had to be raised. Through the work of William Burton (1865—1954)
`and his associates of Standard Oil of Indiana, a thermal cracking process was
`developed whereby heavier oils were heated under pressure and decomposed into
`less complex more volatile compounds. These thermally cracked gasolines satis-
`fied demand, but their higher boiling point range created cold weather starting
`problems. Fortunately, electrically driven starters,
`introduced in 1912, came
`along just in time.
`On the farm, kerosene was the logical fuel for internal combustion engines
`since it Was used for heat and light. Many early farm engines had heated carbu-
`retors or vaporizers to enable them to operate with such a fuel.
`The period following World War I saw a tremendous advance in our
`understanding of how fuels affect combustion, and especially the problem of
`knock. The antiknock effect of tetraethyl
`lead Was discovered at General
`Motors,4 and it became commercially available as a gasoline additive in the
`United States in 1923. In the late 19305, Eugene Houdry found that vaporized
`oils passed over an activated catalyst at 450 to 480°C were converted to high«
`quality gasoline in much higher yields than was possible with thermal cracking.
`These advances, and others, permitted fuels with better and better antiknock
`properties to be produced in large quantities; thus engine compression ratios
`steadily increased, improving power and efficiency.

`
`ENGINE rvras AND THEIR opsaarrou

`
`During the past three decades, new factors for change have become impor-
`rant and now significantly afl‘ect engine design and operation. These factors are,
`first, the need to control the automotive contribution to urban air pollution and,
`secrmd, the need to achieve significant improvements in automotive fuel con-
`SumptiOI‘l.
`The automotive air—pollution problem became apparent in the 1940s in the
`L05 Angeles basin. In 1952, it was demonstrated by Prof. A. J. HaagemSmit that
`the smog problem there resulted from reactions between oxides of nitrogen and
`hydrocarbon compounds in the presence of sunlight.“ In due course it became
`clear that the automobile was a major contributor to hydrocarbon and oxides of
`nitrogen emissions, as well as the prime cause of high carbon monoxide levels in
`urban areas. Diesel engines are a significant source of small soot or smoke par-
`tieles, as well as hydrocarbons and oxides of nitrogen. Table 1.2 outlines the
`dimensions of the problem. As a result of these developments, emission standards
`for automobiles were introduced first ,in California,
`then nationwide in the
`United States, starting in the early 1960s.. Emislion standards in Japan and
`Europe, and for other engine applications, have followed. Substantial reductions
`in emissions from spark-ignition and diesel engines have been achieved. Both the
`use of catalysts in spark-ignition engine exhaust systems for emissions control
`and concern over the toxicity of lead antiknock additives have resulted in the
`reappearance of unleaded gasoline as a major part of the automotive fuels
`market. Also, the maximum lead content in leaded gasoline has been substan-
`tially reduoed. The emission-control requirements and these fuel developments
`have produced significant changes in the way internal combustion engines are
`designed and operated.
`Internal combustion engines are also an important source of noise. There
`are several sources of engine noise: the exhaust system, the intake system, the fan
`used for cooling, and the engine block surface. The noise may be generated by
`aerodynamic effects, may be due to forces that result from the combustion
`process, or may result from mechanical excitation by rotating or reciprocating
`engine components. Vehicle noise legislation to reduce emissions
`to the
`environment was first introduced in the early 1970s.
`During the 1970s the price of crude petroleum rose rapidly to several times
`its cost (in real terms) in 1970, and concern built up regarding the longer-term
`availability of petroleum. Pressures for substantial
`improvements in internal
`combustion engine efficiency (in all its many applications) have become very sub-
`stantial indeed. Yet emission-control requirements have made improving engine
`fuel consumption more difficult, and the removal and reduction of lead in gas-
`Ohm: has forced spark-ignition engine compression ratios to be reduced. Much
`Work is being done on the use of alternative fuels to gasoline and diesel. Of the
`non~petroleumubased fuels, natural gas, and methanol and ethanol (methyl and
`ethyl alcohols) are receiving the greatest attention, while synthetic gaSoline and
`diesel made from shale oil or coal, and hydrogen could be longer-term pos-
`sibilities.
