About this series:
Welcome to the University of Kentucky course AEN/TSM 220: Principles of Internal Combustion Engines. These videos were created by Dr. Tim Stombaugh during COVID instruction protocols to facilitate hybrid teaching of the course. Students watched the videos before meeting in smaller groups to discuss the content and answer questions.
