Spark-ignition internal combustion engine having urea introduction device and method for operating an internal combustion engine of this type
A spark-ignition internal combustion engine has an air intake tract for supplying fresh air to a combustion chamber of the spark-ignition internal combustion engine, an exhaust tract for discharging exhaust gases from the combustion chamber, and a urea introduction device having a urea injection nozzle for introducing an aqueous urea solution into the combustion chamber. The urea injection nozzle is disposed in the combustion chamber or upstream of the combustion chamber in relation to an air flow from the air intake tract into the combustion chamber.

FUEL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM FOR VARIABLE ETHANOL OCTANE ENHANCEMENT OF GASOLINE ENGINES
Fuel management system for efficient operation of a spark ignition gasoline engine. Injectors inject an anti-knock agent such as ethanol directly into a cylinder of the engine. A fuel management microprocessor system controls injection of the anti-knock agent so as to control knock and minimize that amount of the anti-knock agent that is used in a drive cycle. It is preferred that the anti-knock agent is ethanol. The use of ethanol can be further minimized by injection in a non-uniform manner within a cylinder. The ethanol injection suppresses knock so that higher compression ratio and/or engine downsizing from increased turbocharging or supercharging can be used to increase the efficiency or the engine.
