ABSTRACT:
A capsule, the interior volume of which is an ignition chamber, is provided with an engine to improve ignition. The capsule has an orifice so the ignition chamber can communicate with a main combustion chamber of the engine. Often, the capsule is connected to a spark plug and the electrode gap of the spark plug is in the ignition chamber. The capsule causes the combustible mixture in the engine to swirl in a controlled manner as it flows from the orifice towards the electrode gap. The interior surfaces of the capsule are contoured such that momentum of the swirling combustible mixture is conserved, thus maintaining the velocity of the swirling combustible mixture as it proceeds from the orifice of the capsule to the electrode gap and also providing an increased velocity of the ignited mixture as it exits the capsule.
