<p>The invention relates to an internal combustion engine (1) which can be operated with different fuels which have different energy densities, e.g., petrol or natural gas. The invention provides that in order to balance the different output development, especially if an internal combustion engine of this type is used in the drive system of a motor vehicle, the internal combustion engine is operated with a boost in the natural gas mode. A turbo-charger (5) which is known per se or an externally driven load compressor can be used to this end. In this way, it is possible to keep the running characteristics of a motor vehicle constant, even with the use of alternative fuels with different energy densities.</p> |
