Compression ignition type engine

摘要

A compression ignition type engine, wherein a first combustion where the amount of the recirculated exhaust gas supplied to the combustion chamber is larger than the amount of recirculated exhaust gas where the amount of production of soot peaks and almost no soot is produced and a second combustion where the amount of recirculated exhaust gas supplied to the combustion chamber is smaller than the amount of recirculated exhaust gas where the amount of production of soot peaks are selectively switched between and where the second combustion is switched to the first combustion when the temperature of the catalyst arranged in an engine exhaust passage is about to fall below the activation temperature.
