Abstract

Engines with gasoline direct injection and spray guided combustion concept promise an increase in efficiency mainly due to the overall lean mixture and reduced pumping losses at part load. Thereby the requirements on the ignition system increase. Against this background a microwave-ignition principle was investigated at the Institute for Reciprocating Engines of the University of Karlsruhe (TH). The ignition plasma was visualised by a high speed photomultiplier camera.
