Video from earlier today of untreated or summer blend diesel fuel freezing pretty much solid.
Time-Lapse Of non treated summer blend diesel fuel that is meant for use only in warmer climates and it freezes up into a wax like substance within two hours at -10F or -23C temperatures.
The fuel was stored at 74F (23C) just prior to this experiment to show what happens inside the fuel system of the vehicles with untreated diesel fuel if they drive from warmer weather and into the extreme arctic sub zero polar vortex conditions that have impacted a large portion of Canada and the United States this week.
Experiment to show why so much of the commercial traffic has been delayed due to the cold weather.
Shot Description
One long clip from a two hour long video that is edited into three parts that starts out in real time showing the diesel fuel is liquid and free flowing.
Then a time-lapse starts at about 20 seconds after the timer starts or at 37 seconds into the video and continues to about one minute and fifty five seconds into the video where you see the diesel fuel thicken up and gel up.
Then the last part of the video is in real time that shows the diesel fuel is pretty much solid and what it would look like in a fuel tank or fuel system such as a vehicles fuel filter.
