Year:   2012/2013    2013/2014    2014/2015    2015/2016    2016/2017    

Types and working cycles of internal combustion engine. Crank gear. Valve train. Cooling system. Lubrication system. Fuel systems for Otto and Diesel engines. Exhaust and intake systems. Trends of technology and development of motor car engine. Principles of diagnostics. Cleaning of exhaust gases.

The aim of the course is to familiarize the build-up of internal combustion engines used in road transport.

Student after completing the course knows the build-up and operating principles of internal combustion engines; can use diagnostic equipment and finds, when necessary, the reasons disturbing engine work. The course will be completed after the student defends his/her six laboratory tasks.

Lectures - 32 hours, laboratory work - 16 hours. Exam.
Student has to prepare and present PPT presentation on given item. Hi/she has to calculate as homework ICE some parameters to get better undestand about the engines work.

There will be invited to final exam students are forwarded in time home works, have presented a PPT, are passed successfully (at least 70%) intermediat tests and defended laboratory works.. Welldone (at least 80%) intermediat tests, delivered in time home works, defended in time laboratory works, presented PPT presentation are giving a presumption to pass the course without the exam
