Title: Fundamentals of Internal Combustion Engines, 3rd Edition
Author: Gupta, H.N.
Category: Mechanical, Engineering
Language: English | 686 Pages | ISBN: 9780323151795


Description:
The book covers analysis of processes (thermodynamic, combustion, fluid flow, heat transfer, friction and lubrication) relevant to design, performance, efficiency, fuel and emission requirements of internal combustion engines. Besides, it also includes special topics such as reactive systems, fuel-line hydraulics, side thrust on the cylinder walls, etc. and modern developments such as electronic fuel injection systems, electronic ignition systems, electronic indicators, exhaust emission requirements, etc.

Most importantly, the third edition introduces two new chapters on 'Advanced Combustion Engines' and 'Electrical Vehicles'. The first chapter includes advanced low temperature combustion modes, such as HCCI, PCCI and RCCI models. It also includes Flexible Fuel Vehicle and GDCI Engine whereas, the latter chapter on 'Electric Vehicles' discusses BEV, HEV and Fuel Cell Vehicle.
