Learning outcomes
|
The objective of the subject is to inform students about principles of theory and construction of the internal combustion engines (IC engines) in overland means of transportation.
After passing the subject, the student is able to understand the elementary terms; s/he has knowledge in requirements for motor fuels; s/he is familiarized with hydrocarbon fuel combustion; s/he knows both the theoretical and real cycles, understands the crankshaft mechanism and kinematics as well as torsional vibrations, and knows the construction of the piston group,crankcase, engine block, head of cylinder, timing mechanisms, cooling and lubrication systems, S/he knows the function of fuel systems in SI (Petrol) and CI (Diesel) engines.

Assessment methods and criteria
|
Oral examination, Written examination
The student must prove, during the semester and at the final examination, that s/he is able to make use of his/her knowledge acquired from the theory and construction of reciprocating IC engines in solving practical tasks within the scope of the subject-matter s/he has been taught. The students will be informed about the specific requirements by the teacher in the first week of the semester.
