Abstract

See full text

An internal combustion engine, including a premixed mixture formation device that forms a premixed mixture of fuel and air in a combustion chamber, a fuel gas supply device that injects fuel gas directly into the combustion chamber, and an ignition device that ignites the fuel gas. The fuel gas supply device is configured to inject the fuel gas into the premixed mixture near a top dead center of a compression stroke such that a spray of the fuel gas passes through a firing position of the ignition device, to produce the spray of the fuel gas in a predetermined area substantially extending from one end of a cylinder bore to the other end as viewed in a cylinder-bore direction defined by a centerline of the cylinder bore. The ignition device is configured to directly ignite the spray of the fuel gas and to ignite and burn the premixed mixture by way of flame propagation along the spray of the fuel gas.
