This project describes a thermally efficient concept for combusting fuel in an internal combustion engine. It explores adiabatic engines, a usually dormant science that was last active for several years after the 1979 oil crisis. This "cold adiabatic engine” concept is not like published adiabatic engines which expel superheated combustion gasses into an exhaust duct for the post-processing of energy. Instead, this engine allows combusted gasses to adiabatically expand and cool before exiting the combustion chamber.
