In the application of direct fuel injection to an SI engine the fuel spray characteristics such as droplets velocity and diameter, as well as the penetration length in the combustion chamber - but especially their variation with engine speed and injected quantity - are determining criteria for a mixture formation with the required quality. These characteristics are of particular importance for high speed engines because of the large range of speed variation and become stringent for high speed two-stroke engines where a very short mixture formation time is imposed.
