ABSTRACT:
A two stroke internal combustion engine has two opposed pistons (8) which reciprocate in opposite directions in cylinder (4) and define a common compression chamber (6) therebetween. Blower (10) supplies scavenging air at high pressure to compression chamber (6) through inlet port(s) (15) to pass axially through compression chamber (6) to exhaust port(s) (7) in an amount sufficient to purge substantially all products of combustion from compression chamber (6) and to cool cylinder (4). A small external combustion chamber (3), having restricted communication (9) with compression chamber (6), has a valve (2) permitting injection of a rich fuel/air mixture which in part passes to compression chamber (6) to form a fuel lean mixture with the scavenging air therein. Ignition means (1) ignites the fuel rich mixture in combustion chamber (3), in turn allowing burning fuel to ignite the fuel lean mixture in compression chamber (6). The arrangement is such that the operating temperatures in compression chamber (6) remain sufficiently low (below 1650 degrees Celsius) to substantially prevent the formation of nitrogen oxides therein.
