Which outcome occurs when diesel fuel undergoes rapid cooling during phase separation?

A)Crystallization induces filter plugging
B)Viscosity increases through polymerization
C)Thermal runaway causes autoignition
D)Density decreases during vapor formation

💡 Explanation

The rapid phase changes in diesel fuel during extreme cold cause paraffin to solidify, generating crystallization, a process of filter plugging in the fuel lines because the wax separates, therefore fuel starvation, and preventing ignition, rather than combustion problems.
