1. Hello and welcome to the brand new episode of Engines. Today we will discuss the First Ever Internal Combustion Engine Made but before that please don’t forget to subscribe to our channel and hit the bell icon to get regular updates.
2. So first of all what an engine is?
There are different sources of energy available that includes potential energy like gravitational energy normally used for hydroelectric power generation, heat energy for example geothermal like volcanos, chemical energy that we get from petrol diesel and other fuels and Finally nuclear energy. .
3. An engine is a machine designed to convert one or more forms of heat energy into mechanical energy. The Mechanical energy we get from heat is of particular importance since it is used in transportation, industrial process like as cutting, grinding, crushing, and mixing and Electric Power Generation
4. The development of engine has a long story and the final shape is based on knowledge from different times and different people.
5. Before 350 BCE: Southeast Asians invent the fire piston which ultimately inspired the invention of engine.
6. The A fire piston, sometimes called a fire syringe or a slam rod fire starter, was s a device of ancient Southeast Asian origin. It was used to kindle fire by using the principle of the heating of a gas by rapid compression to ignite a piece of tinder, which was then used to set light to kindling
7. During 202 B.C. to 220 A.D.: in the times of Han Dynasty, The earliest hand-operated cranks appeared in China .
8. A crank is an arm attached at a right angle to a rotating shaft by which circular motion is imparted to or received from the shaft. When combined with a connecting rod, it can be used to convert circular motion into reciprocating motion, or reciprocating motion to circular motion.
9. During the 3rd century AD during Roman Empire: Evidence of a crank and connecting rod mechanism has been found in the Hierapolis sawmill in Byzantine Asia Minor. In 6th century: Several sawmills used a crank and connecting rod mechanism in Asia Minor and Syria.
10. During 9th century Banū Mūsā brothers in their Book of Ingenious Devices described The use crank in the in several of the hydraulic devices.
11. In 1206: Al-Jazari invented an early crankshaft, which he incorporated with a crank-connecting rod mechanism in his twin-cylinder pump. Like the modern crankshaft, Al-Jazari's mechanism consisted of a wheel setting several crank pins into motion, with the wheel's motion being circular and the pins moving back-and-forth in a straight line. The crankshaft described by al-Jazari transforms continuous rotary motion into a linear reciprocating motion.
12. 17th century: Samuel Morland experiments with using gunpowder to drive water pumps. Similarly Christiaan Huygens designs gunpowder to drive water pumps, to supply 3000 cubic meters of water/day for the Versailles palace gardens, essentially creating the first idea of a rudimentary internal combustion piston engine.
13. In 1682, A demonstration was performed on Huygens gunpowder engine where a dram of gunpowder creates enough vacuum to lift 8 boys into the air
14. In 1780s: Alessandro Volta built a toy electric pistol. The toy was made for fun as result of research on electrical spark use for ignition inflammable Gas that is Hydrogen and Oxygen. In the toy gun an electric spark exploded a mixture of air and hydrogen, firing a cork from the end of the gun: same as gas explosion in a piston using gasoline fuel.
15. In 1791: John Barber receives British patent for A Method for Rising Inflammable Air for the Purposes of Producing Motion and Facilitating Metallurgical Operations which he described a turbine.
16. In 1798: John Stevens builds the first double-acting internal combustion engine.
17. The engine was using a proper crankshaft for the first time.
18. In 1801: Philippe LeBon D'Humberstein comes up with the use of compression in a two-stroke engine.
19. In 1807: Nicéphore Niépce installed his "moss, coal-dust and resin" fueled Pyréolophore internal combustion engine in a boat and powered up the river Saône in France.
20. In 1807: Swiss engineer François Isaac de Rivaz built an internal combustion engine powered by a hydrogen and oxygen mixture, and ignited by electric spark. He used the same technique as devised by Alessandro Volta .
