Flashbacks of Last Lecture • The development of the internal combustion engine (ICE) (内 燃机) and its supply of liquid fossil fuel transformed both urban (城市) and rural (农村) communities in the twentieth century • The most common engine in road vehicles is the gasolinefueled spark ignition (SI) reciprocating engine (火花点火往复 式汽油发动机) and the diesel-fueled compression ignition (CI) reciprocating engine engine (压缩点火往复式柴油发动 机) is less common • Working principles of ICE: two-stroke cycle and four-stroke cycle

Transportation: Vehicle Power and Performance • Moving a vehicle along a highway requires the expenditure of mechanical power to turn the wheels – Part of this power is needed to overcome the drag force (气动阻力) exerted by the air on the moving vehicle – Another part is needed to counter the resistance of the tires moving over the ground, called the rolling resistance (滚动阻力) – If the vehicle is climbing a hill, additional power is needed to lift it vertically in the earth’s gravitational field (地球重力场) – When the vehicle accelerates to a higher speed, power is needed to increase the kinetic energy (动能) of the vehicle
