Also, an aperture is arranged between the pre-chamber gas supply conduit and the pre-chamber gas valve. At least one aperture associated with a pre-chamber gas valve has a through-flow coefficient such that pressure occurring at a maximum between combustion cycles in a volume between the pre-chamber gas valve and the aperture does not reach a pressure prevailing in the pre-chamber gas supply conduit.

A cylinder head for an internal combustion engine including a cylinder head arrangement having an intake port, an injector connected to the cylinder head arrangement, and a tubular injection tube extending along a tube core axis into the intake port and fluidly connected to the injector, an attachment element being arranged on the injection tube, and the attachment element having an air guiding portion which extends radially outwards with respect to the tube core axis in such a way that a flow in the intake port is influenced by the air guiding portion.

The hydrogen supply device includes a liquid hydrogen pump that boosts the pressure of liquid hydrogen stored in a liquid hydrogen tank, a vaporizer that converts the liquid hydrogen discharged from the liquid hydrogen pump into hydrogen gas, a pressure chamber that a hydrogen gas that flows out from the vaporizer is filled with and that supplies the filled hydrogen gas to a hydrogen engine, and a pump control unit. The pump control unit controls the discharge flow rate of the liquid hydrogen pump so that the actual pressure in the pressure chamber becomes a target pressure based on the hydrogen flow rate supplied to the hydrogen engine, the actual pressure in the pressure chamber, and the rotation speed of the hydrogen engine. At the same time, the target pressure of the pressure chamber is changed according to the rotation speed of the hydrogen engine.

An engine system is disclosed. The engine system may have an engine including at least one cylinder. The engine system may also have a first source configured to supply fuel for combustion in the engine. The engine system may have a second source configured to supply ignition promoter material for combustion in the engine. The engine system may also have a droplet generator configured to generate droplets of the ignition promoter material. In addition, the engine system may have a controller. The controller may be configured to determine an engine parameter. The controller may also be configured to determine a number of the droplets based on the engine parameter. Further, the controller may be configured to determine droplet sizes of the droplets based on the engine parameter. In addition, the controller may be configured to adjust the droplet generator to generate the number of the droplets having the droplet sizes.
