Direct Injection

a method of supplying fuel to the combustion chamber of an internal-combustion engine with internal mixing; the fuel is atomized as it enters the chamber at high speed. Direct injection is achieved by means of manifold fuel feed equipment operating at a maximum injection pressure of up to 100 meganewtons per sq m (MN/m²; 1 MN/m² = 10 kilograms-force per sq cm) or by a pump-and-injector unit at a pressure of up to 200 MN/m². Direct injection is used in diesel engines and in certain types of engines with spark ignition.

New Nissan design improves fuel efficiency by TradeArabia (Manama, Bahrain) it's going to be hard for the stratified or lean-burn direct-injection engine to come on-stream very quickly," says Seetharaman.
