LEAN COMBUSTION METHOD FOR A RECIPROCATING INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE

摘要

The invention relates to a lean combustion method for a four-stroke reciprocating internal combustion engine having a cylinder, in which a combustion chamber is delimited by a cylinder head and a piston that can be moved in a reciprocating manner, the piston being able to vary the volume of the combustion chamber and wherein a fuel can be introduced directly into the combustion chamber, wherein at least one gas exchange inlet valve and one gas exchange outlet valve are provided for a gas exchange, and wherein an intermediate compression can be set in the combustion chamber at a gas exchange top dead center (LWOT) and a main compression can be set at an ignition top dead center (ZOT).
