Abstract

An opposed piston engine may include a first housing, first and second pistons, and first, second, and third fuel injector nozzles. The first housing may define a first passage extending along a first longitudinal axis. The first and second pistons may be slidably disposed within the first passage. The first, second, and third fuel injector nozzles may be in fluid communication with the first passage. At least one of the first, second, and third fuel injector nozzles may be angularly offset from another one of the first, second, and third fuel injector nozzles by an oblique angle about the first longitudinal axis.
