Anotace

The graduate will be able to describe the history, classification and principle of operation of internal combustion engines and explain the basics of their thermodynamics and the combustion process. He will be able to describe the design of the main parts of an internal combustion engine (fuel system, cooling, lubrication) and evaluate the impact of downsizing and hybridization on the efficiency and environmental parameters of the engine. He will be able to process and defend a technical report from laboratory measurements or a solved task focused on a selected type of vehicle engine.
