Grigor'ev The design of the intake passage has a considerable influence on organization of the processes of mixture formation and combustion in an engine. In order to guarantee a high level of technoeconomic and ecological indexes of engine operation, test-stand results are used as a basis for selecting profiles of the cylinder head intake ports and the valves so as to optimize the intensity of rotary motion of the charge in the cylinder, with minimum hydraulic resistance and the smallest poss~le cross- sectional dimensions of the ports and valves [1-4]. In the course of operation of either diesel or carburetor engines, carbonaceous deposits are formed in the intake ports of the cylinder heads and in the fillets of the intake valves. These deposits distort the prof'tle of the intake passage, with adverse effects on its characteristics and on the operability of the engine. Many studies have been published on the influence of deposits on the characteristics of carburetor engines, which are more subject to intake fouling than is the case TI - Fouling of diesel engine intake passage with carbonaceous deposits JF - Chemistry and Technology of Fuels and Oils DO - 10.1007/BF02767758 DA - 2007-11-26 UR - https://www.deepdyve.com/lp/springer-journals/fouling-of-diesel-engine-intake-passage-with-carbonaceous-deposits-7EkTMg0MgQ SP - 162 EP - 166 VL - 33 IS - 3 DP - DeepDyve ER -
