increase the oil's combustive surface area
Combustion is a chemical reaction caused by heat reacting a fuel and an oxidant, and one property that determines the efficiency of a combustive reaction is the surface area of the reaction.
水は超高熱水蒸気となり、油の燃焼面積を拡大させて完全燃焼を実現します。
So this sentence is saying something like this:
"As the water vapor becomes super heated steam, the combustive surface area of the oil expands, achieving total combustion."
I would say 'water vapor' instead of just 'water' because you already know the water is in gas form.
Hope this helps

Note from asker:
"Surface area"!!! For some reason I was drawing a blank and could only come up with "area," which, as you can see, produces an entirely different meaning. I must need some more sleep. |
