ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a combustion system of an internal combustion engine having a combustion chamber with two inlet openings and at least one outlet opening, an intake manifold for inducing mixture, two intake ports bifurcated from the intake manifold and communicated with the corresponding inlet openings and a swirl control valve disposed in the intake manifold. The combustion system has an improvement wherein a side passage in a spiral shape for guiding the mixture by bypassing the swirl control valve is formed along with the intake manifold and one of the intake ports from an upstream side of the swirl control valve to the inlet opening. The swirl control valve is arranged with a predetermined inclination so as to position an edge of the swirl control valve facing to the side passage to the upstream side of the other edge of the swirl control valve when the swirl control valve is fully closed. Furthermore, the combustion chamber is asymmetrically formed by a plurality of swelling portions extending from an inner surface of the combustion chamber so as to provide squish areas. The squish area is arranged at a portion between the outlet openings and the inlet opening to which the side passage is not formed, and at a portion between the inlet openings. Thus the stable combustion efficiency is remarkably improved as well as the output efficiency and the full efficiency over the full range of the load operation period of the engine is improved.
