Petrol should have a high autoignition temperature to enhance engine efficiency and safety. A higher autoignition temperature reduces the risk of pre-ignition and knocking, which can lead to engine damage and reduced performance. Additionally, it allows for better control over the combustion process, ensuring that fuel ignites only under optimal conditions. This characteristic helps improve fuel economy and emissions by promoting more complete combustion.
At -20C, triethylborane is the low-temp autoignition champ. Its primary use? Setting other things on fire!
It has a flash point of about -50° F (-65° C)(lowest temp ignitable). The ignition temperature is about 495° or autoignition which it can go off without external spark source.
The flash point of kerosenes is between 35 0C and 65 0C. The autoignition point of kerosenes is 220 0C.
D2 Diesel flash point, 126 degrees F.D2 Diesel autoignition temp, 493 degrees F.
The critical temperature of gasoline is the temperature at which it becomes combustible and varies according to the pressure the gas is under. On average this temperature is 241 degrees Celsius.
Because , petrol is ignited before or on reaching the dead center at low temparature. But diesel burns at high temp also that's why petrol is not sufficient to diesel engines.
petrol engine - Fuel and air mixtures together and compressed in engine. These mixtures ignited by Spark plug Diesel Engine - Air only compressed at high pressure and Temperature. Fuel injected at high temp so that the ignition takes place
Ford recommends a high temp range dot 3 type fluid however in a pinch a regular dot 3 fluid will do but should be replaced with the high temp type when possible
YES- 104 is a very high temp...especially if he's had it for several days...he should see a doctor.
