direct injection (DI)
In DI, fuel is injected directly into the cylinder, as is typical in a diesel engine (also called direct fuel injection). Most other internal combustion engines use either carburetion (in which the air and fuel are mixed long before the air enters the cylinder) or port fuel injection (in which the fuel is injected just in front of the cylinder intake valve).
