Introduction to Internal Combustion Engines by Richard Stone. This book aims to provide students and engineers with the background pre-supposed in many articles. papers and advanced texts. This book is designed to provide a comprehensive introduction to the theory, design, and operation of internal combustion engines, one of the most important technological innovations of the modern era. In this book, we will explore the fundamentals of internal combustion engines, including their thermodynamics, combustion processes, fuel systems, and emissions. We will delve into the different types of engines, including spark-ignition engines, diesel engines, and gas turbines. We will also examine the latest advances in engine technology, including hybrid powertrains, electric motors, and alternative fuels.
