A piston engine and a method for controlling a diesel-type piston engine including at least one combustion chamber formed by a cylinder. A movably arranged piston is provided in each cylinder is connected to a crankshaft. An injection device is provided that is configured to inject fuel directly into the combustion chamber. Thermal efficiency of the internal combustion engine can be increased while at the same time requirements relating to nitrogen oxide and soot particle emissions can also be maintained.
