ABSTRACT:
A method of and an apparatus for igniting a gas/fuel mixture in at least one combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine, said combustion chamber being supplied with fuel and gas, are suggested in which an expanding pulse-shaped pressure wave of high energy density is generated in said combustion chamber, which pressure wave triggers a self-ignition of said mixture in the combustion chamber due to a local temperature increase.
