A cylinder head for a liquid-cooled multi-cylinder internal combustion engine, with a cooling chamber configuration adjacent to a fire deck, which is partitioned by an intermediary deck essentially parallel to the fire deck into a lower cooling chamber in the direction of the cylinder axis, where lower and upper cooling chambers are flow-connected by at least one main transfer opening for each cylinder in the area of the side wall of the cylinder head and by at least one auxiliary transfer opening in the region of a preferably central opening for the insertion of a fuel injection device. At least one auxiliary transfer opening is configured as a recess in the insertion opening, and at least one first auxiliary transfer opening is located in at least one of the areas between intake passage and insertion opening and/or exhaust passage and insertion opening.

Cylinder head for a liquid-cooled multi-cylinder internal combustion engine

A cylinder head for a multi-cylinder liquid-cooled internal combustion engine having a cooling chamber configuration adjacent to a fire deck which is divided by an intermediate deck essentially parallel to the fire deck into a lower cooling chamber next to the fire deck and an upper cooling chamber adjoining the lower one in the direction of the cylinder axis, the lower and upper cooling chamber communicating with each other via at least one first transfer opening, where at least one first transfer opening is provided in the area of an opening receiving a preferably centrally disposed fuel injection device, where at least one coolant inlet per cylinder (A,B,C), which is preferably located in the fire deck, opens into the lower cooling chamber, at least one coolant outlet departs from the upper cooling chamber, where a lower cooling chamber is associated with each cylinder (A,B,C), the lower cooling chambers of at least two adjacent cylinders (A,B,C) are essentially separated from each other by a partitioning wall, the coolant flow in the lower cooling chamber is essentially transverse to the cylinder head, and where the upper cooling chamber extends over at least two cylinders (A,B,C), the first transfer opening being disposed at a distance (a) from the opening receiving the fuel injection device, and the distance (a) between the openings having a defined minimum.
