Excerpt from The Diesel Engine: Its Fuels and Its Uses
The process of charging the air with fuel vapors is called carbure tion. 'the more volatile fuels, like gasoline, can be carbureted at ordinary atmospheric temperatures; that is, without previous heat ing of the air or the fuel. Liquid fuels With higher boiling points may require heating of the air or the fuel, or both, to bring about their evaporation and absorption by the air preceding combustion. In the heavy-oil engine the vaporizing of the fuel takes place inside of the engine. As a fuel with a high boiling point can not be evap orated at moderate temperatures, thorough mechanical division pre ceding ignition and combustion' is necessary.
