PCT No. PCT/SE81/00201 Sec. 371 Date Feb. 22, 1982 Sec. 102(e) Date Feb. 22, 1982 PCT Filed Jul. 1, 1981 PCT Pub. No. WO82/00178 PCT Pub. Date Jan. 21, 1982.An engine having a working chamber and a combustion chamber and a method for operating it are disclosed. The amount and compression ratio of air entering the combustion chamber are controlled by valves at the working chamber. The maximum possible amount of air is inducted into the working chamber, and then air is discharged until an amount necessary for the existing load on the engine remains. This remaining air is then compressed to a predetermined constant compression ratio at which it enters the combustion chamber. A proportional amount of fuel is supplied, and the resulting combustion gas is then transferred to do work in the working chamber. The amount of combustion gas transferred is sufficient to maintain a substantially constant pressure in the combustion chamber. |
