This book comprises select peer-reviewed proceedings of the 26th National Conference on IC Engines and Combustion (NCICEC) 2019 which was organised by the Department of Mechanical Engineering, National Institute of Technology Kurukshetra under the aegis of The Combustion Institute-Indian Section (CIIS). The book covers latest research and developments in the areas of combustion and propulsion, exhaust emissions, gas turbines, hybrid vehicles, IC engines, and alternative fuels. The contents include theoretical and numerical tools applied to a wide range of combustion problems, and also discusses their applications. This book can be a good reference for engineers, educators and researchers working in the area of IC engines and combustion.
