CONTROL SYSTEM FOR COMPRESSION-IGNITION ENGINE

A control system for a compression-ignition engine is provided, which includes an engine configured to combust a mixture gas inside a combustion chamber by compression ignition, a fuel injector attached to the engine, a state function adjusting part attached to the engine and configured to adjust at least introduction of fresh air into the combustion chamber, a three-way catalyst provided in an exhaust passage of the engine, a wall temperature acquiring part configured to acquire a parameter related to a temperature of a wall of the combustion chamber, and a controller. A swirl flow is generated inside the combustion chamber to circle along the wall. When the wall temperature of the combustion chamber is below a given wall temperature, the controller sets an air-fuel ratio of the mixture gas substantially to a stoichiometric air-fuel ratio so as to remain within a purification window of the three-way catalyst.
