The internal combustion engine, whilst more efficient than its predecessor the steam engine, is still only capable at present of converting about a quarter of the energy available from its fuel into useful work. The remaining three-quarters are lost as heat in the exhaust gases, in the cooling water and in removal from the external surfaces of the engine (see also appendix E).
