Can the car run normally if the air filter gets wet?
1 Answers
No, it cannot run. If water enters the engine and is not repaired in time, it will cause very serious damage to the engine. The following is a related introduction about the air filter: 1. Types of air filters: According to the filtration principle, air filters can be divided into several types, including filtration type, centrifugal type, oil bath type, and composite type. The commonly used air filters in engines mainly include inertial oil bath air filters, paper dry air filters, polyurethane filter element air filters, etc. The inertial oil bath air filter undergoes three stages of filtration: inertial filtration, oil bath filtration, and filtration-type filtration. The latter two types of air filters mainly rely on filter element filtration. 2. Advantages and disadvantages: Various air filters have their own advantages and disadvantages, but they all inevitably face the contradiction between air intake and filtration efficiency. With in-depth research on air filters, the requirements for air filters are becoming increasingly higher. Some new types of air filters have emerged, such as fiber filter element air filters, composite filtration material air filters, noise-reducing air filters, and constant-temperature air filters, to meet the needs of engine operation.
