Abstract:
A two stroke homogeneous charge compression ignition engine comprising:an engine housing defining at least one cylinder; a reciprocating piston positioned in said cylinder; a fuel injector attached to said engine housing and being at least partially positioned in said cylinder, and including a nozzle outlet that begins to open at least once during each reciprocation of said piston when said piston is closer to a bottom dead center position than to a top dead center position; an intake valve positioned above said piston and being in an open position at least once during each reciprocation of said piston; an exhaust valve positioned above said piston and being in an open position at least once during each reciprocation of said piston; a volume pulsed air supplier fluidly connected to said cylinder when said intake valve is in said open position and producing at least one volume pulse with each reciprocation of said piston; a crank shaft connected to said piston; and a phase adjuster operably positioned between said crank shaft and said volume pulsed air supplier.
