Abstract
The direct injection stratified charge(DISC) engine enhances the fuel tolerance and the antiknock tendency. This enhanc3d antiknock tendency allows use of a higher compression ratio which results in higher thermal efficiency. But its actual utilization is prevented by high emission combustion time and wall quenching will be the main causes of increasing unburned hydrocarbons in DISC system. In order to solve this problem, small aount of hydrogen was added to the charging air or injected fuel. The effects of hydrogen addition were examined experimentally by radial fuel injection using a pancake-type constant volume bomb. In case of the hydrogen addition to the charge of air, the combustion the amount of hydrogen. In case of the hydrogen addition to the fuel, the combustion pressure was significantly increased.
