Get the Edgend mug.An engine is a block or piece of metal which can produce forces such as thrust, rotation or other forces. There are different types of engines: vehicle engines (such as for cars), aircraft engines, naval engines and rocket engines.
Engines mainly work by compressing a gas, such as oxygen or hydrogen, and fuel, into a highly flammable mix, then detonating it, which in turn creates two things: thrust and waste gas. The thrusting force can be used to turn a piston or can be directly ejected and power a vehicle forward.
Vehicle engines can come in different types: in-line/straight (meaning the pistons are in a single row), V-shape (where the pistons are in two rows, at roughly 30 degrees), or W-shape (where there are 4 rows in the shape of a W).
