The internal combustion engine is an engine in which the combustion of a fuel (normally a fossil fuel) occurs with an oxidizer (usually air) in a combustion chamber. In an internal combustion engine, the expansion of the high-temperature and high -pressure gases produced by combustion apply direct force to some component of the engine. This force is applied typically to pistons, turbine blades, or a nozzle. This force moves the component over a distance, transforming chemical energy into useful mechanical energy.

Nikolaus August Otto was the German engineer of the first internal-combustion engine to efficiently burn fuel directly in a piston chamber. Though the concept of four strokes, with the vital compression of the mixture before ignition, had been invented and patented in 1861 by Alphonse Beau de Rochas, Otto was the first to make it practical.

I want your help to know the Otto who invented this engine. Because according to me it was Thomas Savery who invented the first internal combustion engine.

internal combustion engine means the system which burn the fuel inside a chamber which is closely covered and also in high pressure and temperature.

Steam engine: Nicollas Kugnat.

Internal combustion: Samuan brown.

Petrol engine which is spark ignition engine: Karl Benz.

He invented the first automobile powered by IC engine and is the founder of Mercedes Benz.

IC engine- OTTO.

Petrol engine- Karl Benz (Father of Mercedes- Benz).

Internal Combustion Engine is invented by Otto.

Combustion of fuel inside combustion chamber
