1. internal-combustion engine

   An internal-combustion engine is a type of heat engine where the combustion of a fuel occurs with an oxidizer (usually air) in a combustion chamber that is an integral part of the working fluid flow circuit. In an internal-combustion engine, the expansion of the high-temperature and high-pressure gases produced by combustion applies direct force to some component of the engine, such as pistons or turbine blades. The force is applied typically to pistons, turbine blades, a rotor, or a nozzle. This force moves the component over a distance, transforming chemical energy into useful mechanical energy.
