Abstract
This paper presents an overview of the current trend of combustion research in spark-ignition engines. The subject of greatest and continuing interest is the elucidation of the mechanism of turbulent flame propagation and/or the flame structure. Although there remain some problems as yet, the goal may not necessarily be so far away, considering the remarkable progress in diagnostic techniques during the last decade. Advances in numerical aerodynamics have made it possible to simulate the flow phenomena in an engine. The field of numerical aero-thermo-chemistry, however, is still immature. Also, the investigation into knock has recently become a subject of growing interest. This review covers the above subjects, in some depth.
