Abstract
A nozzle cap for a fuel injection nozzle operable in a hydrogen internal combustion engine includes an inlet for receiving a flow of hydrogen controllable by an inlet valve arrangeable in the inlet, at least one outlet for providing an exit flow of hydrogen, and an internal bottom flow-guiding body arranged at a bottom side of the nozzle cap downstream of the inlet in a nozzle cap volume, the internal bottom flow-guiding body protruding towards the inlet and comprises a flow-guiding surface for re-directing a flow of hydrogen from the inlet towards the outlet.
