Summary:

A characteristic mechanism of in-cylinder combustion is "time-domain mixing" which mixes up unburned gas, products in the different stages of combustion process, and burned gas, by "eddy", a flow component with its scales of several to 10 mm. It seems to play a role in completing the combustion. Now that direct injection is a central engine technology, a keyword to combustion control is "freedom of mixing", that is, no restriction on mixture formation, realized by direct injection. Various kinds of combustion control technologies utilizing it, have been presented. After combustion control for a premixed leanburn gasoline engine, and a direct injection gasoline engine, was achieved by turbulence control, and mixing control, respectively, the next target of combustion control will be ignition control. It will be possible, by controlling some boundary condition on combustion and fuel chemistry. Time-domain mixing and freedom of mixing will support it. A keyword to the future will be "freedom from boundaries" between combustion and fuel chemistry
