Ash

  ‐ 

Mineral

 

residue

 

in

 

fuel.

 

High

 

ash

 

content

 

leads

 

to

 

excessive

 

oxide

 

build

 

up

 

in

 

the

 

cylinder

 

and/

 

or

 

injector.

 

Cetane

 

Number

  ‐ 

Ignitability

 

of

 

fuel.

 

The

 

lower

 

the

 

cetan

 

number,

 

the

 

harder

 

it

 

is

 

to

 

start

 

and

 

run

 

the

 

engine.

 

Low

 

cetane

 

fuels

 

ignite

 

later

 

and

 

burn

 

slower.

 

This

 

could

 

lead

 

to

 

explosive

 

detonation

 

by

 

having

 

excessive

 

fuel

 

in

 

the

 

chamber

 

at

 

the

 

time

 

of

 

ignition.

 

In

 

cold

 

weather

 

or

 

with

 

prolonged

 

low

 

loads,

 

a

 

higher

 

cetane

 

number

 

is

 

desirable.

 

Sulphur

 ‐ 

Amount

 

of

 

sulphur

 

residue

 

in

 

the

 

fuel

 

.

 

The

 

sulphur

 

combines

 

with

 

the

 

moisture

 

formed

 

during

 

combustion

 

to

 

form

 

sulphuric

 

acid.

 

Viscosity

  ‐ 

Influences

 

the

 

size

 

of

 

the

 

atomized

 

droplets

 

during

 

injection.

 

Improper

 

viscosity

 

will

 

lead

 

to

 

detonation,

 

power

 

loss

 

and

 

excessive

 

smoke.
