The invention relates to a combustion process for an internal combustion engine. The object of the invention is a combustion process for an internal combustion engine which uses, as combustion method of an air-fuel mixture in a combustion chamber, a multiple ignition process, characterized in that a part of the fuel used on a cycle is injected into the combustion chamber (7), the combustion (pre-combustion) of the diluted air-fuel mixture is carried out below the flammability limits, at a temperature below the temperature of d When the fuel is self-igniting, the rest of the fuel is injected into the combustion chamber immediately afterwards, and the flame-spread combustion (main combustion) is obtained by using spark plugs (5) as ignition sources. - Application to combustion engines. |
