Abstract

The efficiency of SI engines at part load can be improved by lean burn and EGR. However, the maximum dilution rate of the air/ fuel mixture and therefore the potential of fuel consumption reduction is limited by increasing cyclic combustion variations. This article reports on investigations of the suitability of various ignition and intake systems for increasing the maximum charge dilution.
