As a mechanical engineer with a focus on automotive systems, I have a deep understanding of the intricacies of internal combustion engines. Dieseling, also known as engine run-on, is a phenomenon that can be quite perplexing to those not familiar with the inner workings of engines. It is a condition that can occur in spark-ignited, gasoline-powered internal combustion engines. When this happens, the engine continues to run for a short period after the ignition has been turned off. This is due to the engine effectively "kicking back" upon shutdown, drawing fuel through the carburetor and into the combustion chamber, where it ignites spontaneously.
The primary cause of dieseling is the improper mixture of air and fuel within the engine. This can occur for several reasons:
1. Carburetor Issues: If the carburetor is not properly adjusted, it can lead to an overly rich fuel mixture. This excess fuel can continue to be drawn into the engine after shutdown, causing the engine to continue running.
2. Engine Overheating: High operating temperatures can cause the fuel to vaporize more readily, leading to an increased likelihood of dieseling. The heat can also cause the engine components to expand, which may affect the fuel and air mixture.
3. Ignition Timing: Incorrect ignition timing can cause the spark to occur too late in the engine cycle. This can result in the fuel not being fully combusted before the exhaust valve opens, allowing unburned fuel to enter the exhaust system and potentially ignite.
4. Engine Backfire: A backfire occurs when the combustion process happens in the intake manifold or the carburetor instead of the combustion chamber. This can cause fuel to be forced back into the engine, leading to continued operation.
5. Engine Shutdown Procedure: If the engine is not shut down properly, such as by quickly turning off the ignition while the engine is still running, it can cause fuel to continue flowing into the engine, resulting in dieseling.
6. Excessive Engine Speed: Operating the engine at high RPMs for extended periods can lead to increased fuel consumption and heat, which can contribute to dieseling.
7.
Fuel Quality: Low-quality fuel or fuel that has a high volatility can vaporize more easily, increasing the chances of dieseling.
8.
Engine Wear: Over time, engine components can wear down, leading to less precise control over the fuel and air mixture. This can result in an environment where dieseling is more likely to occur.
To prevent dieseling, it is important to ensure that the engine is properly maintained. This includes regular adjustments to the carburetor, checking and adjusting ignition timing, ensuring that the engine is not overheating, and following the correct shutdown procedure. Additionally, using high-quality fuel can help reduce the risk of dieseling.

作为一名专注于汽车系统的机械工程师，我对内燃机的复杂性有着深刻的理解。柴油化，也称为发动机延续运转，是一种可能让不熟悉发动机内部工作原理的人感到困惑的现象。这种情况可能发生在火花点火、汽油动力的内燃机中。当这种情况发生时，发动机在点火被关闭后仍会持续运转一小段时间。这是由于发动机在关闭时实际上“回弹”，通过化油器将燃料吸入发动机并在燃烧室内自发点燃。
柴油化的主要原因是发动机内部空气和燃料的混合比例不当。这可能由以下几个原因引起：
1. 化油器问题：如果化油器没有正确调整，可能会导致燃料混合比例过浓。这种过量的燃料在关闭后仍会被吸入发动机，导致发动机继续运转。
2. 发动机过热：高温运行可能导致燃料更容易蒸发，从而增加柴油化的可能性。热量还可能导致发动机部件膨胀，这可能影响燃料和空气的混合。
3. 点火时机：点火时机不正确可能导致火花在发动机循环中过晚发生。这可能导致燃料在排气阀打开前没有完全燃烧，允许未燃烧的燃料进入排气系统并可能点燃。
4. 发动机回火：回火发生在进气歧管或化油器而不是燃烧室中的燃烧过程。这可能导致燃料被迫回到发动机，导致持续运转。
5. 发动机关闭程序：如果发动机没有正确关闭，例如在发动机仍在运行时迅速关闭点火，可能导致燃料继续流入发动机，导致柴油化。
6. 发动机转速过高：长时间以高转速运行发动机可能导致燃料消耗增加和热量增加，这可能导致柴油化。
7.
燃料质量：低质量燃料或挥发性高的燃料更容易蒸发，增加柴油化的可能性。
8.
发动机磨损：随着时间的推移，发动机部件可能会磨损，导致对燃料和空气混合的控制不够精确。这可能导致一个更容易发生柴油化的环境。
为了防止柴油化，重要的是确保发动机得到适当的维护。这包括定期调整化油器，检查和调整点火时机，确保发动机没有过热，并遵循正确的关闭程序。此外，使用高质量燃料可以帮助降低柴油化的风险。
