Abstract
In a diesel engine including a fuel injection valve for injection of fuel into a combustion chamber to produce sprays in the chamber, an axis of the valve is deviated radially outwardly of an axis of a cylinder, so that the valve is positioned close to an inner periphery of the cylinder. Nozzle holes of the valve are grouped into two groups with respect to a line formed by connecting, in plan view, the axis of the valve with the axis of the cylinder. The sprays injected from the nozzle holes advance in a fan-like manner in the plan view and strike against the inner periphery of the cylinder on a side away from the valve.

A fuel injection method for a diesel engine with fuel being injected from a fuel injection valve into a combustion chamber for production of sprays, comprising:
- injecting the fuel from said fuel injection valve through a plurality of nozzle holes thereof, said fuel injection valve deviated radially outwardly of the cylinder into a position close to an inner periphery of the cylinder, said nozzle holes being grouped into two groups with respect to a line connecting an axis of the fuel injection valve with an axis of the cylinder, the sprays injected from each group of nozzle holes advancing in a fan-like manner in a plan view to strike against the inner periphery of said cylinder on a side away from the deviated fuel injection valve and collide, intervene, and intermingle with the other sprays advancing from an opposite direction.
A diesel engine with fuel being injected from a fuel injection valve into a combustion chamber for production of sprays, comprising:
- said fuel injection valve deviated radially of a cylinder into a position close to an inner periphery of said cylinder, said fuel injection valve injecting the fuel through a plurality of nozzle holes grouped into two groups with respect to a line connecting an axis of the fuel injection valve with an axis of the cylinder, tips of the respective groups of nozzle holes divided by said line being directed to the inner periphery of the cylinder on a side away from the fuel injection valve.
