In this post, we will see the book Design of Automotive Engines by A. Kolchin, V. Demidov.

About the book

The book contains the necessary information and systematized methods for the design of motor vehicle and tractor engines.
Assisting the students in assimilating the material and gaining deep knowledge, this work focuses on the practical use of the knowledge in the design and analysis of motor vehicle and tractor engines.

This educational aid includes many reference data on modern engines and tables covering the ranges in changing the basic mechanical parameters, permissible stresses and strains, etc.

The book was translated from Russian by P. Zabolotnyi and was published in 1984.
