TLDR
In this article, the authors used an applied thermoscience textbook for an undergraduate course on internal combustion engines, where students were assumed to have knowledge of fundamental thermodynamics, heat transfer, and fluid mechanics as a prerequisite to get maximum benefit from the text.Abstract:
This book was written to be used as an applied thermoscience textbook in a onesemester, college-level, undergraduate engineering course on internal combustion
engines. It provides the material needed for a basic understanding of the operation
of internal combustion engines. Students are assumed to have knowledge of fundamental thermodynamics, heat transfer, and fluid mechanics as a prerequisite to get
maximum benefit from the text. This book can also be used for self-study and/or as
a reference book in the field of engineread more
