How does the superior ignitability of
influence combustion?
The flame is rapidly spread for quick combustion
in comparison to a normal spark plug.
By decreasing the cooling effect of the center electrode has on the growth of the flame
kernel, forms a stronger flame kernel for ensuring ignition.
The result is faster spread of combustion, more stability and improved engine
performance in comparison to normal spark plugs.
A combustion chamber observation device has been used to show in the photographs
below the spread of combustion for and a normal spark plug.
Clearly the result is a much faster spread of combustion with .
With , combustion has spread throughout nearly the entire combustion chamber
within 4/1000 seconds of discharge. The normal spark plug has only spread half as much in that time. The
regular plug also fails to spread the flame in some occurrences. The same combustion results occur in an actual
engine, becoming a good reason to choose the high performance of 0.4mm iridium center electrode plugs.
