← ScienceWhich outcome results when exhaust backpressure increases inside a two-stroke engine?
A)Scavenging efficiency decreases significantly✓
B)Cylinder peak pressure increases
C)Fuel consumption rate decreases
D)Engine mechanical vibration reduces
💡 Explanation
Increased exhaust backpressure reduces the pressure differential that drives scavenging airflow, therefore less fresh charge enters while more exhaust remains, rather than increased peak pressures or altered fuel mix because volumetric efficiency deteriorates.
