Abstract
In order to avoid the formation of smoke and HC when the compression ratio of a swirl chamber type Diesel engine is lowered either by design or by operation in rarified atmospheres, the fuel injector is located on one side of the center axis of the swirl chamber so as to maximize the distance for which the injected fuel can travel before contacting a wall of the chamber and the auxiliary transfer port through which a fraction of the injected fuel is fed to the main combution chamber is arranged so that the axis thereof intersects the axis of the fuel injector and therefore the trajectory along which fuel is injected, at a point defined within the swirl chamber per se and on the opposite side of the center axis with respect to the fuel injector.
