The document discusses combustion in spark ignition (SI) and compression ignition (CI) engines. It describes the stages of combustion as ignition lag, propagation of flame, and afterburning in SI engines. In CI engines, combustion occurs in four stages - ignition delay, premixed combustion phase, mixing-controlled phase, and late combustion phase. Key factors that affect flame propagation and knocking in SI engines as well as ignition delay in CI engines are also summarized.
