An internal combustion engine has compression ignition, in which fuel is injected as a pre-injection and main injection directly into a working space by means of an injection nozzle having a plurality of injection holes, with the pre-jection taking place in a clocked manner. In order to minimize the moistening of the walls of the combustion chamber, a combustion chamber is provided, in which are arranged an injection nozzle in the region of a cylinder center axis in the cylinder head and a piston recess arranged in the piston head, with an approximately centrally situated piston recess projection being arranged in the piston recess. The stroke of a nozzle needle of the injection nozzle is set in such a manner that a restricting of the range of the injected fuel jets is obtained.

Self-igniting internal combustion engine

A control arrangement for a fuel-injected supercharged internal engine and, in particular, a diesel engine, with the control arrangement including a fuel injection pump. A control unit is provided for adjusting a fuel output of the fuel injection pump in dependence upon the combustion air delivered to the supercharger. To optimize the measurement of combustion air, the control unit is adapted to be influenced by instantaneous operating parameters such as the rotational speed of the internal combustion engine and rotational speed of the supercharger.
