External combustion engines (ECEs) are a type of heat engine in which the combustion of fuel occurs externally to the engine itself. Unlike internal combustion engines, where fuel is burned within the engine cylinder, external combustion engines generate heat through a separate combustion process that heats a working fluid (such as water or air) that then drives the engine's mechanical motion.
