Engine and laboratory experiments are performed to understand theformation of deposits during ignition delay. An experimental Dieselengine allows to observe deposit formation as a global phe- nomenonincluding homogeneous and heterogeneous reactions as well asinteraction between liquid and gaseous phases. A CFR engine is usedto work under the same global conditions but without the liquidphase. A flow reactor enables to investigate the effects of definedand controlled temperatures and fuel/air ratios.
