Effect of pre-chamber charge temperature on engine performances and emissions of a dual chamber spark ignition engine

The performances, fuel economy and emissions from a dual chamber; stratified charge, spark ignition engine with heated pre-chamber charge temperature were investigated. The total hydrocarbon emissions from the engine, when tested at Leeds, proved considerably lower than in the early British Leyla...
