← TechnologyWhich outcome occurs when direct fuel injectors spray against a cylinder wall?
A)Quench increases unburned hydrocarbon emissions✓
B)Lean mixtures thoroughly vaporize
C)Homogeneous charge improves responsiveness
D)Volumetric efficiency improves substantially further
💡 Explanation
Wall quenching occurs because the fuel cools the cylinder wall, inhibiting complete combustion; therefore unburned hydrocarbons increase in the exhaust, rather than allowing complete combustion because insufficient heat prevents the chain reaction to proceed to completion.
