Engine braking
Engine braking, also called compression braking, is the slowing of a vehicle by using its engine, kept in gear, to absorb momentum instead of providing power.
Engine configuration
Engine configuration in aviation is the arrangement of an engine's cylinders relative to its crankshaft, described as radial, in-line, V-type, or opposed, along with cooling method.
Engine control unit
An engine control unit (ECU), also called an engine control module, is the electronic controller that governs an internal combustion engine's fuel injection and ignition timing.
Engine department
The engine department, also called the engineering department, operates and maintains a ship's propulsion and support systems; one of three merchant-ship departments, it is headed by the chief engineer.
Engine displacement
Engine displacement, also called swept volume or engine capacity, is the total volume swept by all pistons in a piston engine, usually quoted in cc or liters.
Engine efficiency
Engine efficiency is the fraction of energy supplied to an engine that is converted into useful work, always below 100% because some heat must be rejected.
Engine knocking
Engine knocking, also called pinging or spark knock, is abnormal combustion in spark-ignition engines where unburned fuel auto-ignites ahead of the flame front, producing a metallic pinging sound.
Engine placement and mounting configurations
Engine placement and mounting configurations are the classes of location and attachment by which aircraft engines are installed, affecting safety, drag, flutter, structural weight, and growth potential.
Engine placement on water-capable aircraft
Engine placement on water-capable aircraft puts engines and propellers high, in wings, gull-wing breaks, or pylons, to clear hull spray, at the cost of unusual handling and pusher efficiency.
Engine-generator
An engine-generator, or genset, is a generating set in which an internal combustion engine drives an AC generator to convert fuel into electrical power, from small residential units to large standby diesels.
