High-Speed Engine Innovations

This document is an introduction to a book on high-speed internal combustion engines. It discusses how scientific research focused on developing high-speed engines during World War I, leading to dramatic improvements in power and efficiency. Now, light, high-speed engines dominate applications like transportation where their advantages of weight and fuel efficiency are most important. Volatile liquid fuels like petrol and benzene are critical but limited resources, so alternative sustainable fuels like alcohol must be developed to ensure future fuel supply for internal combustion engines.
