Cylinder head for internal combustion engine

An internal combustion engine cylinder head comprising:

• a water jacket in the cylinder head has a plurality of inlet portions through which cooling water is introduced and a plurality of outlet portions through which the cooling water is discharged;
• a plurality of female threaded portions having female threads for attaching an exhaust component;
• and
• a plurality of bulging portions protruding into the water jacket,
• wherein the inlet portions are disposed in a central position of the water jacket in a row along a cylinder row direction,
• the outlet portions are disposed on one lateral surface side of the cylinder head in a row along the cylinder row direction to which the exhaust component is attached, and are disposed such that a spacing between adjacent ones of the outlet portions located on either side in the cylinder row direction is wider than a spacing between the inlet portions located on either side in the cylinder row direction,
• the female threaded portions are provided to the lateral surface side of the cylinder head, protrude into the water jacket, and are disposed between the outlet portions located on either side in the cylinder row direction,
• the water jacket is disposed around the female threaded portions so that the cooling water crosses an area around the female threaded portions in the cylinder row direction, and
• the bulging portions are disposed so as to extend from ends of the female threaded portions towards the side where the inlet portions are located.
