An internal combustion engine (ICE) is a type of engine that generates mechanical energy through the combustion of fuel within its combustion chamber. This process involves burning a fuel—such as gasoline, diesel, or natural gas—along with an oxidizer (usually air) to create high-pressure and high-temperature gases. These gases expand and exert force on engine components, such as pistons, which then convert this force into rotational or linear motion.
