Method for
mixture formation in a direct-injection
internal combustion engine (100) with at least one
cylinder head (40) and at least one cylinder (20) and a rotatably mounted
crankshaft, wherein the at least one cylinder (20) has at least one inlet opening on an inlet side for supplying
combustion air and at least one outlet opening on an outlet side for removing
combustion gases, wherein a
combustion chamber (10) is formed which is bounded by a
piston crown of a cylinder
piston (30) belonging to the at least one cylinder (20), a cylinder inner wall (21) and the
cylinder head (40), wherein the longitudinal axis of the cylinder
piston (30) is perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the
crankshaft,and the fuel is introduced, at least partially, into a piston-head-side
omega-shaped recess (ω, M) in the
combustion chamber (10) of the at least one cylinder (20) by means of a multi-hole injection valve (50) having injection openings during at least one injection at a predefinable position of the cylinder piston (30) in the cylinder (20), wherein the multi-hole injection valve (50) is arranged in the
cylinder head (40) on the opposite side of the piston-head-side
omega-shaped recess (ω, M) of the piston head of the cylinder piston (30), characterized in that radial injection openings (S, r ) and at least one axial
injection port (S a ) having a multi-hole injection valve (50) • A first partial quantity of fuel is injected onto the bowl collar (31) with a substantially radial orientation to the longitudinal center axis (Z30) of the cylinder piston (30), whereby fuel is partially injected onto straight bowl sections (34) that extend orthogonally outwards from the longitudinal center axis (Z30) of the cylinder piston (30) to the bowl collar (31), and partially onto the strongly inclined or circular bowl walls (32) that adjoin the bowl collar (31), wherein the bowl walls (32) adjoin the bowl collar (31) and initially extend partially outwards from the longitudinal center axis (Z30) of the cylinder piston (30) and
undercut the bowl collar (31) and only then extend inwards towards the center of the bowl towards the longitudinal center axis (Z30) of the cylinder piston (30), and • a second fuel fraction with essentially axial orientation to the longitudinal center axis (Z30) of the cylinder piston (30) onto a raised area (M1; 33-1; M2, 33-2) formed as a platform in the center of the
omega-shaped bowl (ω1, M1; ω2, M2) is injected into the
combustion chamber (10), such that the
direction vector of the at least one via the axial injection opening (S a ) directed injected fuel jet (S) after
impact changes in such a way that it aligns with the direction vectors of the jet passing over the steeply inclined or circular trough walls (32) via the radial injection openings (S r ) aligned fuel jets (S).
