SPARK IGNITION COMBUSTION ENGINE WITH INTERNAL MIXTURE FORMATION FOR COMBUSTION OF A MIXTURE OF A GASEOUS FUEL AND AIR
DRIVE
February 19, 2025
The invention relates to a spark-ignited internal combustion engine with internal mixture formation for burning a mixture of a gaseous fuel and air under work output. The gaseous fuel can preferably be hydrogen. The invention further relates to a motor vehicle, preferably a commercial vehicle, with such an internal combustion engine, as well as the use of such a spark-ignited internal combustion engine as a generator drive motor for power generation or for marine applications. The spark-ignited internal combustion engine (1) comprises at least one cylinder (2) in which a combustion chamber (3) is defined between a longitudinally movable piston (4) and a cylinder head (6). In this connection, each of the at least one cylinder (2) comprises an injection valve (7) arranged in the cylinder head (6) which is arranged at a distance from the combustion chamber (3) in a first supply channel (8) leading indirectly or directly into the combustion chamber (3), and a spark plug (9) arranged in the cylinder head (6) and having an ignition tip (10) which is arranged in a second supply channel (11) leading into the combustion chamber, wherein the ignition tip (10) is arranged at a distance from the outlet (12) of the second supply channel (11) into the combustion chamber (3).
