engine?
Answers were Sorted based on User's Feedback
Answer / mule
efficincy of ic enginemainly affected by 42 persent heat
loss in exaust gasses & 28 persent heat loss in cooling
system of the engine. ferther it includes friction +
transmition etc.

Answer / pjagan89
Friction between piston and cylinder results in major loss
in efficiency.

Answer / praveen
The major loss is "heat loss". Efficiency of an IC engine
wrt to the carnot efficiency i.e. max possible efficiency.
Since we are unable to harness all the heat produced into
work, efficiency is very low.
Other reasons of loss of efficiency are as above, valve
timing, friction and all those. but the major cause is heat
loss.
