The outboard engine of today has a phenomenal range of one to 80 horsepower, unheard of a few years ago for a two cycle engine in quantity production.

For an example let's dream up an engine that has a final combustion chamber volume of 5 cubic inches and a cylinder volume of 45 cubic inches.

Historically, religion has also functioned as a tremendous engine of vindication, enforcement, sanction, and perpetuation of various other institutions.

After the engine has been installed on the second car, the second car moves to the hood assembly.

When the third car ’ s engine has been mounted, it then can be moved to the hood station ; meanwhile, subsequent cars ( if any ) can be moved to the engine installation station.

Assuming no loss of time when moving a car from one station to another, the longest stage on the assembly line determines the throughput ( 20 minutes for the engine installation ) so a car can be produced every 20 minutes, once the first car taking 35 minutes has been produced.

There has been a progression towards centralized control of the multiple complex systems fitted to aircraft, including engine monitoring and management.

Finnish Defence Forces reported on 3 September 2012 that the United States has not delivered any of the AMRAAM anti-aircraft missiles they had ordered due to a mysterious engine malfunction in cold weather that the manufacturer, Raytheon, has not been able to determine the fault of.

The most common power source since the 1920s has been the diesel engine.

For example, if an engine running on gasoline has a compression ratio of 10: 1, the cylinder pressure at top dead center is

If a compression test does give a low figure, and it has been determined it is not due to intake valve closure / camshaft characteristics, then one can differentiate between the cause being valve / seat seal issues and ring seal by squirting engine oil into the spark plug orifice, in a quantity sufficient to disperse across the piston crown and the circumference of the top ring land, and thereby effect the mentioned seal.

The crankshaft has a linear axis about which it rotates, typically with several bearing journals riding on replaceable bearings ( the main bearings ) held in the engine block.

This is like Step 1, except it is odd columns ( 3, 5, 7 ) added to even columns ( 2, 4, 6 ), and column one has its values transferred by a sector gear to the print mechanism on the left end of the engine.

In 1691, an article in the London Gazette mentioned John Lofting, who held a patent for a fire engine: " The said patentee has also projected a very useful engine for starting of beer, and other liquors which will draw from 20 to 30 barrels an hour, which are completely fixed with brass joints and screws at reasonable rates ".

The formula is more complex than the Otto cycle ( petrol / gasoline engine ) relation that has the following formula ;

The Diesel engine has the lowest specific fuel consumption of any large internal combustion engine employing a single cycle, 0. 26 lb / hp. h ( 0. 16 kg / kWh ) for very large marine engines ( combined cycle power plants are more efficient, but employ two engines rather than one ).

The diesel engine has the highest thermal efficiency of any regular internal or external combustion engine due to its very high compression ratio.

In the village of Coniston, the Ruskin Museum has a small display of Donald Campbell memorabilia, and the Bristol Orpheus engine recovered in 2001 is also displayed.

The lightweight petrol internal combustion engine, operating on a four-stroke Otto cycle, has been the most successful for light automobiles, while the more efficient Diesel engine is used for trucks and buses.

A Carnot cycle is a special kind of cyclic process affecting a body composed of material suitable for use in a heat engine.

) using a Ford engine originally 4. 7-litre, enlarged to 4. 9-litre ( also known as a 5. 0 ) with special alloy Gurney-Weslake cylinder head.

Many car and engine manufacturers support extended drain intervals, but request extended drain interval certified oil used in that case ; and sometimes a special oil filter.

Most cars sold to the public did not have a wide variety of engine choices, and the majority of the buying public at the time were not interested in the large displacement special edition engine options that would soon become popular.

The Forester XTI concept vehicle uses the 2. 5 liter intercooled turbo engine from Subaru WRX STI, 6-speed manual transmission, 18 x 8-inch S204 forged alloy wheels with Yokohama Advan Neova 255 / 40R18 performance tires, adjustable coil-over suspension, Brembo brakes with 4-piston front calipers, 2-piston rear calipers, Super Sport ABS and Electronic Brake-force Distribution ( EBD ), leather and Alcantara sport seats, a special instrument cluster, front dash and center console and leather-wrapped steering wheel.

In 1974 they created a special engine design bureau, which in 1978 designed an engine designated as VAZ-311.

Cautions may be displayed for special problems ( fuel low, check engine,

Other German experiments with JATO were aimed at assisting the launch of interceptor aircraft such as the Messerschmitt Me 262C, as the Heimatschützer special versions, usually fitted with either a version of the Walter HWK 109-509 liquid fuelled rocket engine from the Me 163 Komet program either in the extreme rear of the fuselage or semi -" podded " beneath it just behind the wing's trailing edge, to assist its Junkers Jumo 004 turbojets, or a pair of specially rocket-boosted BMW 003R combination jet-rocket powerplants in place of the Jumo 004s, so that the Me 262C Heimatschützer interceptors could reach enemy bomber formations sooner.

This special gas turbine / turbocharger can also work independently from the main engine as an ordinary APU.

It also determines special aspects of aircraft performance such as stall speed ( for single engine airplanes-not more than 61 knots ), rate of climb ( not less than 300 ft / min ), take off speed ( not less than 1. 2 x Vs1 ), weight of each pilot and passenger ( 170 lb for airplanes in the normal and commuter categories, and 190 lb for airplanes in the acrobatic and utility categories ).

Ford also bought or designed and built special purpose machine tools and fixtures such as multiple spindle drill presses that could drill every hole on one side of an engine block in one operation and a multiple head milling machine that could simultaneously machine 15 engine blocks held on a single fixture.

The Samara 2, a lightly facelifted version with a fuel-injected version of the 1, 499 cc engine and a better gearbox, went on sale in limited numbers as the 2115 ( four-door sedan ) in 1997, built at the VAZ " special vehicles " unit.

A metacharacter is a character that has a special meaning ( instead of a literal meaning ) to a computer program, such as a shell interpreter or a regular expression engine.

Citroën launched a special edition 2CV " 007 " to coincide with the 2CV product placement in the film, it was fitted with the standard flat-2 engine, painted in yellow with " 007 " on the front doors and fake bullet hole stickers.

* Hiro, a Japanese steam engine character from the Thomas and Friends special " Hero of the Rails "

With extended data paths for efficient DSP processing, special accumulators and a dedicated MAC-type DSP engine, this core was unifying the DSP and the RISC processor world.

A short time before his death he published an essay in which he criticized the Radikalenerlass (" Radicals Decree ") of 1972, a rule which subjected all candidates for the civil service ( including prospective teachers, railway engine drivers, and postmen ) to special scrutiny in order to exclude political radicals.

* Lift, a special type of arrow in the video game engine StepMania

The department operates a fire apparatus fleet of five engines ( including a reserve engine ), three ladders ( including a reserve ladder ), two rescues ( including a special operations rescue ), one Haz-Mat unit, one fireboat, a command vehicle, and numerous other special and support units.

In the spring of 1974, Maserati created a special 4. 0 L V8 engine based on the latest C114-11 engine variant.

Lotus boss Colin Chapman immediately negotiated a deal with Vauxhall to buy some of their cast-iron blocks so that development of Lotus ’ own aluminum 907 engine could be sped up.

Included with 428 SCJ were cast pistons, a nodular controlled cast-iron crankshaft casting 1UA or 1UA B with an external weight on the snout behind the balancer, 427 ( LeMans ) capscrew connecting rods, an engine oil cooler, and either a rear axle with 3. 91: 1 gears and a Traction-Lock limited slip or 4. 30: 1 gears with a Detroit Locker.

Originally developed in 1959 for the Ford Anglia, it is an in-line four-cylinder engine with a cast-iron cylinder head and block.

This alloy engine weighed less than the previous six-cylinder cast-iron units, reducing overall weight to about 900 kg and making the car competitive against other Rover-powered sports cars such as TVR and Morgan.

The cast-iron block Slant-6 gained a reputation for dependability as it was initially engineered as an aluminum block engine with a robust casing.

The new B21 engine was a 2127cc, 4-cylinder unit, which had a cast-iron block, a five-bearing crankshaft, and a belt-driven overhead camshaft.

The engine block is mounted on a precision boring machine where the cylinder is then bored to a size much larger than normal and a new cast-iron sleeve can be inserted.

* Buick Special and Oldsmobile F-85 for all three years shared an aluminum block 215 cubic-inch V8 engine featuring cast-iron liners to prevent overheating and block warpage problems common with aluminum block engines.

The aluminum V8 was replaced by conventional cast-iron block V8s of 300 cubic inches for the Buick Special / Skylark and 330 inches for the Oldsmobile F-85 / Cutlass, while Pontiac carried over its 326 cubic-inch V8 to the ' 64 Tempest / LeMans line while switching the base engine from the four-cylinder to a 215 cubic-inch inline six-cylinder.

The engine features a cast-iron block, with pistons with shallow crowns to save weight.

Car and Driver in a 1977 Astre road test, said, " The Astre is the Vega-polished and refined and significantly improved, but still a Vega in perhaps its ultimate state of development .. It remained for Pontiac to do what Chevrolet probably should have done in the first place: the substitution of the marvelous old Chevy II cast-iron four-cylinder econo-motor for the much-troubled aluminum-block Vega engine.

The Vega engine was a inline-four with a die-cast aluminum alloy cylinder block, cast-iron cylinder head and single overhead camshaft ( SOHC ).

This engine used a forged steel crankshaft with three bearings and cast-iron pistons.

* Engine: L24 I-6, cast-iron block, alloy head, two valves per cylinder, seven-bearing crankshaft, single overhead cam, 9. 0: 1 compression ; Maximum recommended engine speed 7000 rpm.

These thin-mold casting methods have been used since the 1960s in the manufacture of cast-iron engine blocks and cylinder heads for automotive applications.

The all-aluminum V8 engine was dropped after the 1963 model year, but was replaced with very similar cast-iron block / aluminum head for one year, and then all iron, engines.

This raised the cost of complete engines to more than that of a comparable all cast-iron engine.

For 1965, the 300 switched to cast-iron heads, raising dry weight to, still quite light for a V8 engine of its era.

The engine was a modern design for its time, using a cast-iron block and an aluminum head.

The 2JZ-GTE is an inline-layout, six-cylinder, belt-driven dual-overhead camshaft, air-intercooled, twin-turbocharged, cast-iron block, aluminium cylinder headed engine designed and manufactured by Toyota Motor Corporation that was produced from 1991 until 2002 in Japan.

Primarily due to the cylinder liners being made from aluminum instead of cast-iron the engine weighs less than the J35Z engines.

This engine used cast-iron cylinder liners and a cast-iron head.

The cast-iron liners in the aluminum block version can also shift if the head bolts are not properly torqued and the engine is run hot.

The later cars had a cast-iron manifold, visually similar to, but incompatible with, that for the 2-valve engine, and visually distinct from that of the Dolomite Sprint.
