← ScienceWhich outcome occurs when exhaust back pressure significantly increases within internal combustion engine?
A)Increased cylinder heat soak✓
B)Reduced valve overlap duration
C)Decreased fuel injection timing
D)Enhanced manifold volumetric efficiency
💡 Explanation
When exhaust back pressure increases significantly, residual exhaust gases remain in the cylinder because the pressure differential reduces scavenging efficiency, increasing cylinder and head temperature and leading to heat soak. Therefore, increasing cylinder heat soak results, rather than alter valve timing, fuel injection or improve manifold efficiency, each requiring adjustments internally.
