There are at least two reasons why a detailed study of spark ignition is worthwhile. First, very little is known about the chemistry of spark ignition. The identity and quantity of radicals produced in different mixtures compared to the amount of energy deposited as heat could be an important factor in the ignitability of these mixtures. An improved method of ignition could decrease the hydrocarbon emissions from a direct-injection...
