SUMMARY

This discussion centers on the search for reading materials in mechanical engineering, specifically for topics such as I.C. engine testing and performance, tyre retreading, auto electrical systems, rolling friction, and Euro emission standards. Key resources mentioned include "Internal Combustion Engine Fundamentals" by John Heywood and the "Bosch Automotive Handbook." The discussion also clarifies abbreviations like ISI (Indian Standards Institute) and FHP (Frictional Horse Power), which are relevant to the topics at hand.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of Internal Combustion Engine fundamentals
  • Familiarity with automotive electrical systems
  • Knowledge of tyre retreading processes
  • Awareness of Euro emission standards
NEXT STEPS
  • Research "Internal Combustion Engine Fundamentals" by John Heywood
  • Study the "Bosch Automotive Handbook" for comprehensive automotive knowledge
  • Explore ISI standards related to I.C. engines
  • Investigate the latest Euro emission standards and their implications
USEFUL FOR

Mechanical engineering students, automotive engineers, and professionals involved in engine performance testing and compliance with emission standards will benefit from this discussion.

Hi,
I am doing 2nd year in mechanical eng.
I couldn't find any book for following topics where i live,so i need some reading material on following topics :-
1. I.C. Engine testing and performance > F.H.P by noise testing.
> ISI rating of I.C. Engines.
2. Tyre retreading.
3. Auto electrical system and equipment.
4. Rolling friction.
5. What is euro emission standard.
 
Engineering news on Phys.org
1. Internal Combustion Engine Fundamentals, John Heywood
3. Bosch Automotive Handbook
5. Standards documents


ISI? FHP? What's with all the TLAs?
 
ISI - Indian Standards Institute.
FHP - FRICTIONAL HORSE POWER
