Summary:

This paper describes the analyses to improve both stratified and homogeneous charge combustion of a gasoline direct injection engine. In this study, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and high-speed hydrocarbon (HC) measurement were employed to observe the mixture formation process. The analysis of the combustion flame propagation was conducted by in-cylinder visualization and ion current measurement. As a result of the analyses, the following conclusions were made:As a result of this study, a shallow cavity piston with an oval shaped wall was developed. It achieved low fuel consumption, low HC emission, and high WOT performance
