1. A gas generator comprising: a housing including a top plate, a bottom plate and a circumferential wall provided with a gas discharge port;an inner cylindrical member disposed inside the housing and defining an ignition chamber therein;a space outside the inner cylindrical member in the housing being axially divided into two spaces by a partition member;a first combustion chamber charged with a first gas generating agent and being formed in one of the two spaces, the first combustion chamber being in communication with the ignition chamber by a first communication nozzle provided in the inner cylindrical member;a second combustion chamber charged with a second gas generating agent and being formed in the other of the two spaces, the second combustion chamber being in communication with the ignition chamber by a second communication nozzle provided in the inner cylindrical member;a plenum chamber located between the first combustion chamber and the second combustion chamber, an inner side of the plenum chamber facing the inner cylindrical member, an outer side of the plenum chamber facing the circumferential wall provided with the gas discharge port,the first combustion chamber being in communication with the plenum chamber, and the second combustion chamber being in communication with the plenum chamber,an axial position of the first communication nozzle being adjusted to be farther away from the plenum chamber, than an axial position of the second communication nozzle,during actuation, the first gas generating agent located in the first combustion chamber to be burn up earlier than the second gas generating agent located in the second combustion chamber. 2. A gas generator according to claim 1, wherein the first combustion chamber is in a side of the top plate in the housing, and the second combustion chamber is in a side of the bottom plate in the housing,the first communication nozzle is formed in a circumferential wall of the inner cylindrical member in the vicinity of an end portion close to the top plate, andthe second communication nozzle is formed in the circumferential wall of the inner cylindrical member at a position close to the plenum chamber. 3. A gas generator according to claim 1, wherein the first combustion chamber is in a side of the bottom plate in the housing, and the second combustion chamber is in a side of the top plate in the housing;the first communication nozzle is formed between an opening side at one end of the inner cylindrical member and the bottom plate; andthe second communication nozzle is formed in a circumferential wall of the inner cylindrical member at a position close to the plenum chamber. 4. A gas generator according to claim 1, wherein the partition member includes a combination of two substantially annular flat plate members disposed apart from each other in the axial direction, andthe plenum chamber is an annular space formed between the two substantially annular flat-plate members. 5. A gas generator according to claim 1, wherein an axial length of an inner circumferential surface of the plenum chamber on a side facing the inner cylindrical member is less than an axial length of an outer circumferential surface of the plenum chamber on a side facing the circumferential wall of the housing. 6. A gas generator according to claim 1, further comprising: a filter disposed in the plenum chamber such that a gap is formed between an outer circumferential surface of the filter and an inner circumferential surface of the circumferential wall of the housing. 7. A gas generator according to claim 1, wherein one or more factors, selected among a charging amount, a shape, dimensions, composition, and a composition ratio of the first gas generating agent and the second gas generating agent, are adjusted as auxiliary means for ensuring that, during actuation, the first gas generating agent located in the first combustion chamber is burned up earlier than the second gas generating agent located in the second combustion chamber.
