ABSTRACT:
A water-cooled cylinder head is provided for a multicylinder internal-combustion engine having two inlet and outlet valves per cylinder. The cylinder head has a cylinder head cooling space with inflow and outflow openings for the coolant which is integrated in the cylinder head housing and extends above a part-spherical cap forming a combustion chamber volume. Water cooling spaces are formed at least in areas around a receiving opening for a spark plug arranged centrally in the cylinder head housing and around the two outlet valves. The water cooling spaces are mutually connected by way of a common annulus section. At least the common water cooling jacket annulus section has a volume which remains an essentially constant distance from the combustion chamber volume, so that, at least in this area, the wall thickness of the part-spherical combustion chamber cap extends in a uniform manner and to close to the combustion chamber volume.
