Here are some of the technologies that are extending the life of the internal combustion engine by making it more efficient. Displacement on demand: Shuts down unneeded cylinders once a vehicle ...

If you’re at all interested in NASCAR folklore, you’ve no doubt heard of Smokey Yunick. He was a stock car racing crew chief, builder, owner, driver, engineer, engine builder, and car designer, but an ...

The electric vehicle revolution gets all the headlines, and perhaps for good reason. What nobody mentions is that the global internal combustion engine market was valued at around $280 billion in 2024 ...

Reports of the death of the internal combustion engine have been greatly exaggerated. In the wake of stalled consumer demand and stubbornly high costs, automakers around the world are furiously ...

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 ...

In most automobiles, heat is inevitable. That's because an internal combustion engine (ICE) powers most vehicles. In an ICE, fuel burns to create power, and the process releases heat. A lot of heat.

Ford once sketched a road where an engine's pistons never saw oil and engines ran hotter on purpose. In a late‑1980s patent application filed and granted in Europe, the company described an "uncooled ...

Automakers have taken various approaches when tackling the transition to building electric vehicles. The crossover period has seen plenty of vehicles that were originally built with traditional ...

With more and more new electric cars on the horizon, the future of internal combustion engines seems darker every day. But this new type of hyper-efficient engine design might keep it around for a bit ...

To investigate the performance of engine cooling water pump in automobile with variable rotating speed, experimental tests and numerical simulation are carried out on an engine cooling water pump ...
