Abstract: A method for operating an internal combustion engine, in particular a gas engine, preferably a lean gas engine, which has at least one cylinder, in order to improve the combustion process, a prechamber is provided for igniting a mixture in a main chamber. A pressure curve is detected by a pressure sensor in the main chamber dependent on a crank angle, and the quantity of supplied fuel is controlled or regulated for each individual cylinder using a fuel metering device and the pressure sensor dependent on a desired output and/or a desired torque and/or a desired rotational speed of the internal combustion engine.

Abstract: A method for operating a quantity-controlled internal combustion engine having at least two cylinders, including the following steps: ascertaining a present operating state; determining a number of cylinders or cylinder groups to be deactivated in dependence on the present operating state; deactivating or keeping deactivated a fuel supply for at least one cylinder to be deactivated or at least one cylinder group if at least one cylinder or at least one cylinder group is to be deactivated; and opening a flow-influencing element associated with the at least one cylinder or the at least one cylinder group for a fresh mass supply to the at least one cylinder to be deactivated or the at least one cylinder group to be deactivated.

Abstract: An arrangement for supplying a medium to an exhaust line of a combustion engine. The arrangement comprises a first exhaust passage defined by at least a first wall surface of an element, and a dosing device supplying the medium to the first exhaust passage. The arrangement is adapted to maintaining a degree of heating of the first wall surface so that the latter will be at a higher temperature than the medium's vaporization point when the liquid medium is supplied in the first exhaust passage. Therefore, even the medium which reaches the first wall surface will vaporize in the first exhaust passage.
