Students acquire basic theoretical and practical knowledge about engines with internal combustion

Students are capable of routinely using the acquired knowledge and skills working independently or in teams, as well as the ability of further advancement in the area of IC engines.

Historical development and classification of IC engines. Definitions and basic terms. Description of main components and systems of IC engines: piston mechanism, distribution mechanism, fuel supply, cooling, lubrication, ignition, starting. Theoretical and real cycles of IC engines. Basic indicator and effective signs. Basic drive characteristics of IC engines.

Teaching takes the form of lectures, computing and laboratory practice and consultations.
