Abstract: A fuel injector for injecting an over-enriched fuel and air mixture to the combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine includes a spray nozzle, a gaseous carrier, a fuel mixing and evaporation chamber and an injector nozzle. During operation, both a liquid fuel and the gaseous carrier are supplied to the fuel mixing and evaporation chamber of the injector through the spray nozzle, where they are mixed and evaporated as a result of elevated temperature, and the mixture reaches the combustion chamber. The gaseous carrier is air or, flue gas, at elevated pressure and temperature and having a composition that prevents the initiation of flame combustion, and the gaseous carrier has an oxygen content low enough to prevent the initiation of combustion, even under conditions of elevated pressure and temperature.

Abstract: The invention relates to a fuel injector for injecting an over-enriched fuel and air mixture to the combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine, is characterised in that it comprises: a hydrocarbon liquid fuel spray nozzle, at least one supply of a gaseous carrier, a fuel mixing and evaporation chamber and an injector nozzle to the engine combustion chamber (C.C.), configured such that, during operation, liquid fuel is supplied and heated and compressed gaseous carrier are supplied to the fuel mixing and evaporation chamber of this injector through the spray nozzle, where they are mixed and evaporated as a result of elevated temperature, and the mixture of evaporated fuel with a hot gaseous carrier with low oxygen content thus formed reaches the combustion chamber (C.C.
