Vincenzo La Battaglia Valerio Mussi Stefano Marini Alessandro Giorgetti

Abstrak

Several car manufacturers have encountered corrosion in certain mechanical components caused by chlorine in fuel. The current regulations governing the quality of fuel allowed for trade are briefly described. Next, this paper analyzes the possible origin of chlorine in damaged components. In particular, the phenomenon of corrosion found in EGR valves and EGR coolers is analyzed. The analyses conducted to determine the nature of the corrosion and its origin are illustrated. Finally, the effects of the phenomenon on engine operation are analyzed, depending on the type of damaged component.
