For maximum engine power, a rich fuel mixture is mandatory in order for the combustion process to consume all the oxygen in the air entering the combustion chamber.

在发动机最大功率的工况下，燃烧过程中浓的可燃混合气会将燃烧室中的所有空气消耗完。

youdao

When the engine is cold, for example, then the mixture must be rich ( have a high proportion of fuel).

例如，当发动机冷车时，就必须提供较浓的混合气（具有较高的燃油比例）。

youdao

The mixture must be of varying degrees of richness to suit engine operating conditions. It must be rich (have a higher percentage of fuel) for starting, acceleration, and high-speed operation.

混合气的浓度比例可以改变，以适应发动机的运行状况。汽车在启动、加速和高速行驶时，需要含燃油浓度较高的混合气；

That mixture is then fed into a fuel reformer that turns it into a hydrogen-rich gas.
