18.6 ATM for diesel UDER ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE AND TEMPERATURE.
Diesel contains more impurities compared to gasolene.Therefore fuel filter is more critical in a diesel engine
The critical temperature of diesel fuel is typically around 400-450 degrees Celsius. Above this temperature, diesel fuel can vaporize and pose a serious fire hazard. It is important to handle and store diesel fuel carefully to prevent accidents.
The critical temperature of diesel is typically around 550°C, and the critical pressure is around 80 bar. At these conditions, diesel would exist in a supercritical state, with properties of both a liquid and a gas.
Diesel fuel ignites due to a combination of high pressure and temperature in a diesel engine's combustion chamber. When the piston compresses the air, it raises the temperature to a point where the injected diesel fuel vapor ignites spontaneously without the need for a spark plug. This auto-ignition occurs because diesel fuel has a higher cetane number, allowing it to ignite more easily under the right conditions. Additionally, the heat generated from the compression process is critical for initiating combustion.
Why did you capitalize "heavy"

The vapor pressure of diesel fuel at 60 degrees Celsius is approximately 2.0-2.5 kPa.
Because a diesel requires a fuel sprayed under high pressure. Compression on most diesels is over 300 PSI. Injector pressure when the fuel is sprayed can be from 1500-2500 PSI. This is why you need to be careful around diesel lines. The pressure can cut your skin or inject fuel into your body. That can cause problems. A carb can't deliver any pressure.
40-80psi
The critical temperature for diesel fuel typically ranges between 300 °C and 400 °C (approximately 572 °F to 752 °F), depending on its specific composition. At this temperature, diesel fuel transitions from a liquid to a supercritical state, where it exhibits unique properties that differ from both liquid and gas phases. This critical point is important for processes like supercritical fluid extraction and combustion efficiency in advanced engine designs.
diesel only comes in fuel injection, the fuel needs high pressure to ignite, and cannot only be sucked in like with a carburator on a petrol engine
