← TechnologyWhich outcome occurs when homogenous charge compression ignition (HCCI) engine fuel-air mixture is excessively lean?
A)Incomplete combustion causes misfire✓
B)Rapid cylinder pressure rise leads to knock
C)Increased NOx emissions due to high temps
D)Overly advanced timing causes pre-ignition
💡 Explanation
When excessively lean HCCI fuel-air mixture occurs, incomplete combustion results because fewer fuel molecules are present to react with the available oxygen, leading to frequent misfires; therefore, incomplete combustion results., rather than knock, increased NOx, or pre-ignition, each requiring a more stoichiometric fuel ratio for combustion instability.
