Abstract
The predominance of a cold climate in the territory of the Russian Federation causes the prevalence of low-temperature conditions during the operation of vehicles, which cause a decrease in the reliability of the engine start-up and an increase in its warm-up time. At the present time, changing the operating modes of the engine fuel system, the introduction of additives to improve the quality of fuel, as well as the use of various types of heaters, one of which is the heating of process fluids with microwave radiation are ways to solve these problems. The use of microwave radiation for heating liquids is considered in the field of railway and pipeline transport, but is not well understood in road transport. Earlier studies have allowed to establish the change in physic and chemical properties in the processing of fuel microwave radiation. The purpose of this article is to study the effect of the use of microwave-treated fuels on the quality of engine start-up and warm-up under low temperature conditions.
