ABSTRACT:
Hybrid step combustion system (HYSCOM) is available for four-stroke and two-stroke internal combustion engines. HYSCOM uses diesel and gasoline as fuels in operation. HYSCOM has a main combustion chamber and a prechamber in the separate combustion chamber structure or has only a main combustion chamber in the single region combustion chamber structure. HYSCOM includes one gasoline injector disposed in the intake manifold port and one diesel injector disposed in the prechamber in the separate combustion structure or disposed in the main combustion chamber in the single region combustion chamber structure. HYSCOM has two combustion modes. In the single fuel combustion mode, only air charge is introduced into the cylinder in the intake stroke. Near the end of compression stroke, a diesel injector supplies diesel fuel into the high temperature and pressure air charge in the combination chamber where it ignites. In the dual fuel combustion mode gasoline injector supplies gasoline fuel into the air charge in the intake manifold port and then is introduced into the cylinder with the air charge together in the intake stroke. Near the end of the compression stroke, there is premixed gasoline mixture in the combustion chamber whose temperature and pressure are high enough to make injected diesel fuel ignite immediately. A diesel injector supplies diesel fuel into the premixed gasoline mixture where it ignites. The diesel flame then ignites the premixed gasoline mixture.
