Abstract
A plasma injector, or ignitor, includes electrodes separated by a predetermined distance. The injector is mounted in an internal combustion engine with active portions of the electrodes installed in the combustion cylinder. The dimensions of the electrodes and the space between them are determined so that when a sufficiently high voltage is applied across them in the presence of a gaseous mixture of air and fuel, a plasma is formed. The plasma moves outwards, from between the electrodes, into an expanding volume in the cylinder under a Lorentz force.
