English term or phrase: wet stacking
Hello Kudozers,

I am looking for the translation of "wet stacking".

Here is the definition of the term:
"Wet stacking is a condition in diesel engines in which unburned fuel passes on into the exhaust system. The word "stacking" comes from the term "stack" for exhaust pipe or chimney stack. The oily exhaust pipe is, therefore, a "wet stack". This condition can have several causes."

Also, I found this webpage which explains the phenomenon pretty well: https://www.absolutegenerators.com/blog/cat/generator-how-to...

Thanks a lot in advance for your help!

Best regards/Cordialement,

Nicolas
