← ScienceWhich outcome results when a diesel engine's injection timing is significantly advanced beyond the optimal setting?
A)Increased NOx emissions from higher temperatures✓
B)Increased soot production from incomplete combustion
C)Decreased fuel efficiency from lower peak pressure
D)Engine knocking from reduced compression ratio
💡 Explanation
When injection timing is advanced, earlier combustion causes higher peak cycle temperatures because most combustion occurs near top dead center where volume is minimized, increasing NOx formation. Therefore increased NOx results, rather than other emission changes, lower efficiency, or knocking which depend on other factors and timing offsets.
