The combustion stability and more in details the cyclic variability significantly influences the performance and the pollutant emissions of a spark ignition engine. In this work, an experimental research activity was carried out to investigate the influence of the different combustion phases on the cycle-to-cycle variation. In particular the flame kernel development and the fuel deposits burning were investigated by in-cylinder pressure measurements and optical investigations. Engine cycle resolved visualization was applied to characterize the spatial evolution of the flame front from the spark ignition until the exhaust phase. A numerical custom post-detection procedure was used to correlate the optical data with the pressure related parameters during the combustion process. The simultaneous use of optical diagnostics and pressure related analysis demonstrated the fundamental role of the first stage and late phase of the combustion on the spark ignition engine process. Flame kernel and diffusion controlled flame due to fuel deposits burning dominated the cyclic variability of in-cylinder combustion. The experiments were realized in a 250 cm3 single cylinder, port fuel injection, four-stroke spark ignition engine. The engine was optically accessible and it was equipped with the head, injection system and exhaust device of a commercial engine mounted on small motorcycles and scooters. Standard EURO IVgasoline was used.
