Summary

The internal combustion engine is still the most common source of power for the ground vehicle. Nowadays occurs due to the implementation of rules for emission standards to reduce displacement volume of engine while keeping the operational parameters. This process is called downsizing. Students in the vehicle engines are more acquainted with modern structural design of vehicle engines, are more acquainted with the methods of increasing the efficiency of the internal combustion engine thermodynamic cycle. Also design and calculation of the structural design of crank mechanism is included with respect on using modern design and computational methods. For railway vehicles is today in terms of internal combustion engines important collaboration of engine and generator which is the principle of diesel-electric traction. With this theme, students also learn about in subject.
