A design process and design criteria for an efficient combustion based on Ricardo experience and guidelines applied in the design and evaluation of gas engines with pre-chambers will be described in this paper, focusing on prechamber features like nozzle design, spark plug position or interaction between the cylinder and pre-chamber flow. Following the design process, this article will illustrate the necessary analytical steps required for an efficient gas combustion system design in terms of both pre-chamber and main chamber and will provide information of typical misconceptions that could appear in the design of such systems. Additionally to the pre-chamber combustion performance, the paper will show the influence of the pre-chamber combustion on its structure and durability using thermo-structural simulations, also utilizing the outputs of CFD combustion analysis. For prediction of thermo-structurally driven pre-chamber surface degradation (like cases where significant amount of porosity throughout the thickness is spotted), carrying out a transient thermal analysis followed with a structural stressfatigue analysis using transient results is investigated to address the issues. Transient thermo-structural analysis of the pre-chambers is proposed using full-cycle CFD data from in-cylinder CFD analysis as boundary condition. This approach is intended as a supplement to the existing standard steady-state thermo-structural analysis in order to address the above mentioned issues.
