Abstract
In-cylinder catalysis as a method for reducing the nitrogen oxides emission of diesel engines has been investigated experimentally. Desirable effects could be achieved only when intensive interaction of combustion products with the catalyst-coated surface was provided. It was found that a design based on a combustion chamber of variable geometry could give useful results, particularly for non-turbocharged engines.Keywords
