Abstract
A precombustion chamber gas engine includes a main-chamber forming portion forming a main combustion chamber, a precombustion-chamber forming portion forming a precombustion chamber communicating with the main combustion chamber via nozzle holes, and an ignition device disposed in the precombustion chamber and having an ignition portion spaced from the main chamber central axis at a predetermined distance. In a plan view, the precombustion chamber has a near-ignition region including the ignition portion and a far-ignition region opposite to the near-ignition region separated by a borderline passing through the precombustion chamber central axis and perpendicular to a straight line passing through the precombustion chamber central axis and the ignition portion. The cross-sectional area of a specific near nozzle hole which is at least one nozzle hole in the near-ignition region is smaller than the cross-sectional area of a specific far nozzle hole which is at least one nozzle hole in the far-ignition region.
