Zusammenfassung:A diesel engine comprising at least one cylinder (1) with a piston (2) having a piston bowl (3). A fuel injector (6) is configured to direct a fuel spray towards a target area (21) on an annular wall section (22) of the piston bowl so as to make a flame (20) formed by ignition of the fuel spray hit the target area. The target area borders, via a flow separation edge (23), on a lowered flow separation area (24) on said annular wall section so as to give this annular wall section a stepped configuration. Said flow separation edge and flow separation area are configured to induce the formation of a vortex-filled wake between the flame and the flow separation area on the downstream side of the flow separation edge when the flame flows from the target area, aα-oss the flow separation edge and over the flow separation area.
