Parent topics
- Propulsion [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Internal combustion engine [r]: A device for generating mechanical energy from the combustion of a fuel and external oxygen [e]
- Diesel engine [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Jet engine [r]: A reaction engine that discharges a high velocity jet of fluid to generate thrust in accordance with Newton's laws of motion. [e]
- Rocket engine [r]: A means of generating thrust, for propulsion or for adjusting a position, based on the hot gases expelled by a mixture of chemicals that does not need an external oxygen source [e]
Subtopics
Externally oxidized propellants
- Gasoline [r]: A fuel for spark-ignited internal combustion engines derived from petroleum crude oil. [e]
- Jet fuel [r]: A liquid fuel derived from petroleum crude oil consisting of hydrocarbons having about 9 to 14 carbon atoms and a boiling range of about 175 to 345 °C (350 to 650 °F). [e]

- Zinc powder [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Sugar in "firefudge" [r]: Please do not use this term in your topic list, because there is no single article for it. Please substitute a more precise term. See Sugar (disambiguation) for a list of available, more precise, topics. Please add a new usage if needed.
