 RATIONALE:
I.C. Engines & air compressor finds applications in almost all sectors of
industry due to automation and in automobile fields due to increase in transportation of
goods & people day by day. Also I.C. engines are one of the major contributors of air
pollution Hence it is necessary to understand constructional, working & thermodynamic
features of I.C. engine as Diploma technicians deal with working, testing and
maintenance of it. Therefore, Internal Combustion Engines course has been considered
highly relevant for mechanical technician.

 COURSE OUTCOMES:
After completing this course students will be able to–
1. Analyze working of IC Engine, Gas Turbine and Air compressor.
2. Interpret different system in IC Engine, Gas Turbine and Air compressor
3. Calculate the performance parameter of I C Engine and Air compressor and its effect on
environment
4. Develop ability to dismantle and assemble I C Engine
5. Observe and report writing of different components of I C Engine through visit
6. Operate IC Engine and Air compressor to measure different parameters and identify faults
and remedies through test and visit
