Unit Code: DAU502

Unit Name: Automotive Engine Technology

Description: The unit is designed to teach the students fundamental concepts and applications of engine technology, engine fuels, and its related combustion and emissions. The focus is on explaining engine performance in terms of power, energy utilization and exhaust emissions, its relation to internal processes like combustion and gas exchange and varying engine operating conditions. The unit is based on explaining processes and performance by application of first principles in thermodynamics, chemistry, heat transfer, fluid flow and mechanical dynamics. This approach provides a basis for analysing and understanding the complex interactions between subsystems and processes inside the engine system.
