METHOD FOR OPERATING AN INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE SYSTEM USING HYDROGEN FUEL

A method for operating an internal combustion engine system using gaseous fuel is disclosed. The method includes injecting, by activating a fuel injector to generate a first injection in association with a compression stroke, a first amount of gaseous fuel into a pre-combustion chamber, wherein the first injection and the first amount of gaseous fuel are adapted so that an ignitable fuel-air mix is formed in the pre-combustion chamber but not in a main combustion chamber; igniting, by activating an igniter, the ignitable fuel-air mix in the pre-combustion chamber formed by the first injection; and injecting, by activating the fuel injector to generate a second injection after ignition of the first amount of fuel, a second amount of gaseous fuel into the pre-combustion chamber, wherein the second injection and the second amount of gaseous fuel are adapted so that fuel is forced through the orifices into the main combustion chamber.
