摘要 |
The invention relates to a method of operating an internal combustion engine with a six-stroke process involving the following sequence of events:1<st >stroke (I): air intake into the combustion chamber,2<nd >stroke (II): compression of the air and injection (3a) of a first fraction of gasoline fuel into the combustion chamber,3<rd >stroke (III): first working stroke after first ignition (5) of the mixture, said ignition (5) being initiated by an ignition device,4<th >stroke (IV): new compression of the contents of the combustion chamber,5<th >stroke (V): second working stroke after second ignition (6) of the fuel-air mixture contained in the combustion chamber,6<th >stroke (VI): expulsion of the exhaust gases from the combustion chamber,a second fraction of gasoline fuel being injected (3b) prior to the second ignition (6).In order to achieve the lowest possible fuel consumption and low emissions in an internal combustion engine it is suggested that the second fraction of gasoline be injected (3b) during the third stroke (III), preferably during the second half of the third stroke (III), that an at least almost homogeneous fuel-air mixture be formed in the combustion chamber prior to the second ignition (6) and that the second ignition (6) occurs by compression ignition of said homogeneous fuel-air mixture.
