ABSTRACT:
When a lower engine power output is required, one of the combustion chambers acts as a reformer operable to convert a mixture of an ordinary fuel and air into a reformed gas which is introduced into the other combustion chambers for the power generating combustion thereof. On the contrary, when a higher engine power output is required, all the combustion chambers are subjected to power generating combustion of a stoichiometric air-fuel mixture.
