What Does Carbon Deposit Mean?
1 Answers
Carbon deposit refers to: 1. Engine carbon deposit: During engine operation, unsaturated olefins and gums in fuel produce a coking-like substance under high-temperature conditions; 2. Carbon deposit in electrical discharge machining: Carbon deposition should be strictly avoided in EDM processes, especially in precision mold manufacturing where it can be fatal. Carbon deposit is an abnormal manifestation in spark erosion machining. The source of engine power is the air-fuel mixture, which must enter the combustion chamber through the intake valve. A small portion of gasoline adheres to the intake valve and, when exposed to engine heat, the unburned hydrocarbons, paraffin, and gums in gasoline form sticky carbon deposits. If the fuel injector has fouling, the atomization of injected gasoline deteriorates, leading to uneven mixing with air and increasing gasoline accumulation on intake valves.
