Researchers have theoretically linked ignition and deflagration in a combustion system, unlocking new configurations for stable, efficient combustion engines due to the possible existence of any ...

Editor's Note: The purpose of the Shop Series has been to acquaint and enlighten the car enthusiast with some of the more involved aspects of automotive mechanics, vehicle repair and modification. As ...

Because internal combustion engines operate under such high pressures, it's tough to get their inner workings on camera. Usually the whole process is shrouded by thick metals to contain all of that ...

Almost exactly 200 years ago, French physicist Sadi Carnot determined the maximum efficiency of heat engines. The Carnot ...

UNDATED (WKRC) - A team of scientists claimed they developed a engine that does not use coal or oil but instead utilizes quantum entanglement. "Quantum" has become a sort of buzzword in science, and ...

With all the recent emphasis on electric vehicles, we often overlook the technology that still powers most cars on the road today. The internal combustion engine (ICE) has been at the heart of the ...

Some agree that batteries are the clear winner in the race against hydrogen technologies, while others think the opposite. There's no such debate among internal combustion engine proponents. Almost ...

Hydrogen combustion engines are inefficient, costly to maintain and worse for the environment than fuel cell or battery powertrains. But they're also noisy and fun, so automakers are starting to pitch ...

3D printing is a powerful tool for creating all kinds of stuff, but it has its limits. Hobbyist-focused machines that dispense melted plastic through a nozzle can only make parts that are so strong.
