Abstract: A low geometric squish ratio piston for internal combustion engines to facilitate squish inducing mixing and intensified turbulence near engine top dead center The piston comprises a piston head having a height and a width and a depth with a top surface, and a skirt region with a ring region to define a body. The top surface defines an outer radius and is equipped with a combustion bowl recessed in the top surface and concentric therein to define an inner radius. The outer radius and the inner radius define a low geometric squish ratio. The combustion bowl has a deep piston center depth and a relatively high re-entrant angle at a periphery of the combustion bowl radius.
