The starting of the internal combustion engine in conditions of low and critically low ambient temperatures is considered. It is shown that a successful start of an internal combustion engine can be ensured by creating a fuel-air mixture with a high temperature outside the engine compartment. The design of a device for creating such mixture and research experimental data are presented. A new scheme of the starting device is proposed, which can be integrated into various types of internal combustion engines. Keywords: internal combustion engine, starting, low temperature, operation.

The paper is devoted to the urgent problem of improving the automatic regulation of the thermal state of internal combustion engines and controlling the water-chemical cooling regimes during the transition to high-temperature cooling. Principal and functional diagrams of cooling systems with improved control are presented. The prospects of controlling the pressure in the internal circuit of high-temperature engine cooling systems and the automatic control of the physicochemical characteristics of the coolant have been proved.

Ammonia, when blended with hydrocarbon fuels, can be used as a composite fuel to power existing internal combustion (IC) engines. Feasibility of developing ammonia gasoline liquid fuel blends and the use of ethanol as an emulsifier to enhance the solubility of ammonia in gasoline were studied using a small thermostated vapor liquid equilibrium (VLE) high-pressure cell. Engine dynamometer tests were conducted for developed fuel blends to measure the performance. Gasoline with 30% ethanol can retain 17.35% of ammonia in the liquid phase by volume basis. Engine dynamometer results show ammonia-rich fuels result in an increased torque and power output especially at higher engine speeds.
