A method of and an arrangement for burning a liquid or gaseous fuel in a combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine. A method of and an arrangement for burning a liquid or gaseous fuel in the presence of air or another oxidant and by the use of water in a combustion chamber (12) of an internal combustion engine, especially a reciprocating or rotary piston-type engine. To reduce the fuel consumption and the emission of harmful substances and to increase the efficiency when low-octane fuels, especially regular gasoline or acetylene, are used, water is injected during one or several selected phases, in particular during the entire operation, in an operation-dependent quantity direct into the combustion chamber (12) in such a way that a progressive “primary combustion”of fuel/air just below the critical “knock”temperature (Tc) occurs which initiates a “secondary combustion”of the admixed water at any point of combustion. The “secondary combustion”causes overall smooth progressive combustion within the combustion chamber (12).

A method of burning a fuel in the presence of an oxidant such as air and water in a combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine, comprising supplying fuel to the combustion chamber, sensing the temperature of the fuel within the combustion chamber during at least one of a series of selected phases of engine operation, introducing water into the combustion chamber at a sensed temperature just below the critical “knock”temperature (Tc) and creating a progressive primary combustion of fuel and air which initiates a corresponding progressive secondary combustion of the mixed fuel and water.
