Etienne Lenoir,French engineer
Etienne Lenoir (1822-1900),French engineer and inventor of the internal combustion engine. A self-taught engineer,Lenoir also worked on electroplating and telegraphy. Designed in 1859,his engine was powered by coal gas. The engine was a two-stroke piston and cylinder design,and was used to power a 'horseless carriage' and a boat but the engine was only 4 percent efficient and of little use. Lenoir,awarded the Legion of Honour in 1881 for his telegraphy work,died in poverty.
