Adaptive control of the ignition timing of spark ignition engines utilising the combustion flame light emissions

An examination has been made to determine whether the ignition timing in Spark Ignition engines can be accurately controlled from the combustion flame light emissions. In order to accurately set the ignition advance for optimum engine performance under all conditions of engine operation, an adaptiv...
