Which fault does a cracked or melted substrate produce?

  • A.Nothing
  • B.A path allowing gas to bypass the walls, so the filtration is lost while the pressure drop appears normal or low
  • C.Soot passing straight through with low back pressure
  • D.Excessive back pressure, which follows from the debris blocking the channels within the damaged filter substrate

Answer: C

A crack lets gas through without filtering, and the pressure drop falls. The last option explains exactly that signature, which makes it a correct and more diagnostic version of the same answer. Most errors here come from carrying across a result from a neighbouring case where it does not hold. The shared behaviour explains why these belong together and the differences explain why both exist. Framing the question as which quantity the change acts upon makes the answer follow without calculation.
