Description

The results of an experimental investigation of an improved spark-capacitor ignition system are presented. The high-speed shooting and oscillography techniques were used. Influence of the ignition system parameters on a size of an ignition region, a time scale of spark energy input and discharge efficiency has been found out. The reason of the high spark efficiency has been explained. Variants of circuit diagrams generating a single arc pulse and double arc pulse have been tested.
