Abstract: A piston for reduced production of particulate matter during combustion of a fuel directly injected after a top dead center position includes a piston body defining a piston body diameter of about 263 mm, and a combustion face upon the first axial body end. The combustion face includes a combustion bowl, and an annular piston rim extending circumferentially around the combustion bowl. Inner and outer rim surfaces together comprise a horizontal width of the rim in a ratio of about 1:1 to about 2:1. The inner rim surface includes a chamfer sloping from about 9° to about 11°, such that a profile of the rim is relieved to limit deflection by the piston of the directly injected fuel toward a cylinder wall.

The convex curve segment of the compound bowl profile defines a relatively small radius of curvature, and the plurality of convex curve segments corresponding to the inner rim surface define a relatively large radius of curvature.

Abstract: A piston for a compression ignition internal combustion engine includes a piston body having an outer cylindrical surface defined along a longitudinal piston axis. A piston includes a combustion face defining a combustion bowl including an inner bowl surface, an inner rim portion and an outer rim portion. The combustion face includes a cross-sectional profile of rotation about the longitudinal piston axis. A first profile of the profile of rotation includes a convex curve segment, a linear segment outboard the convex curve segments and a first set of concave curve segments outboard the linear segment. The first set of concave curve segments defines a first radius of curvature. A second profile is provided outboard the first profile and includes a second set of concave curve segments. The second set of concave curve segments defines a second radius of curvature greater than the first radius of curvature.
