1. The document discusses different types of internal combustion (IC) engines, including their classifications, components, and operating cycles.
2. IC engines are classified based on their cycle of operation, thermodynamic cycle, type of fuel used, ignition method, cooling system, and valve location. The main components of IC engines include the cylinder block, cylinder head, pistons, connecting rods, crankshaft, and camshaft.
3. Petrol engines can operate on a four-stroke or two-stroke cycle, while diesel engines typically use a four-stroke cycle. The document explains the workings of four-stroke petrol, diesel, and two-stroke petrol engines through their intake, compression, power,
