Auto-ignition temperature is____________________?
  • (A)  minimum temperature to which oil is heated in order to give off inflammable vapours in sufficient quantity to ignite momentarily when brought in contact with a flame
  • (B)  temperature at which it solidifies or congeals
  • (C)  that at which it catches fire without external aid
  • (D)  indicated by 90% distillation temperature, i.e., when 90% of sample oil has distilled off
  • (E)  indicated by 50% distillation temperature
Injection lag is_________________?
  • (A)  the time taken by fuel after injection (before top dead center) to reach upto auto-ignition temperature
  • (B)  time before actual fuel injection and the pump pluger starts to pump fuel
  • (C)  time corresponding to actual injection and top dead center
  • (D)  time corresponding to actual ignition and top dead center
  • (E)  none of the above
