← TechnologyWhich risk increases severely during piston crown cracking?
A)Scavenging efficiency reduction
B)Uncontrolled cylinder over-pressure✓
C)Fuel injector backflow issues
D)Premature valve-train wear
💡 Explanation
Uncontrolled cylinder over-pressure increases with cracks due to crevice volume increase causing abnormal combustion. The deflagration-to-detonation transition becomes much easier because flame quenching is reduced; therefore over-pressure is greatly risked rather than other relatively gradual modes.
