How a car works
Automotive is a great field including many different types of Vehicles. In order to explain its working, I am taking its simplest form which is Car. The car consists of the following parts.
- Engine
- Transmission
- Suspensions
- Body
Engine
It is the most important part of Car or even can be called the heart of the Car. This involves the process of converting the fuel energy take from the combustion of fuel to the motion (or kinetic energy) which drives the vehicle according to the instructions of the manual gearbox or automatic transmission in cars. Further, it includes several processes including even different procedures.
Transmission
It is the next important thing while coming to parts of the car. But most important part of the car for the driver and the reason is it works as a bridge between the engine and the motion of car according to the given instructions by the driver such as when to move slowly, when to move fast and when to stay neutral. The most important part of the Transmission system is the Gear Box itself. It drives the car according to the required speed. Normally two types of transmission systems we have a Manual gearbox and the other one is an automatic gearbox. Whenever someone has a problem with it, the automatic transmission Specialist fixes it.
Suspension
When an automatic or manual gearbox gives instruction to the engine that on which level to maintain the speed, then the Suspension takes care about the speed control as it handles the friction between the wheels and road. It is basically the part of the car which keeps the car body connected to the wheels.
Body
This is a cabin on the wheels than on the suspension which carries the passengers and Stuff to ride and transport respectively.
