AN EXPERIMENTAL STUDY OF THE DELAYED MIXING STRATIFIED CHARGE ENGINE CONCEPT

A single cylinder engine was used to simulate the delayed mixing stratified charge combustion process. A rich charge was drawn into the engine through the carburetor. Combustion was inititate with a spark; later air was injected to complete the combustion process. The results showed that emissions could be controlled by the delayed mixing combustion process. The engine specific power was also at reasonable levels. However, the engine efficiency was low. /SASI/
