Automotive glow plug is a part that assists during cold start. It creates ideal ignition conditions for the injected fuel to burn through electrically generated thermal energy that is brought into the combustion chamber. Glow plugs are used in diesel engines to help start the engine with low temperature, especially in the winter. Glow plugs can be divided into metal type and ceramic type based on the material. Now, some glow plugs can heat up to more than 1000℃ in seconds.
