After the engine is turned off, leaving the air conditioner on will not have any impact. Below is relevant information about car air conditioning: 1. Introduction to car air conditioning: Car air conditioning consists of a compressor, condenser, throttle element, evaporator, fan, and necessary control components, forming an air conditioning system that regulates the temperature and humidity inside the car to provide a comfortable environment for the driver. 2. Working principle: When the compressor is working, it sucks in low-temperature and low-pressure gaseous refrigerant from the evaporator. After compression, the temperature and pressure of the refrigerant increase, and it is sent to the condenser. Inside the condenser, the high-temperature and high-pressure gaseous refrigerant transfers heat to the outside air passing through the condenser and liquefies, turning into a liquid. When the liquid refrigerant flows through the throttle device, its temperature and pressure decrease, and it enters the evaporator. Inside the evaporator, the low-temperature and low-pressure liquid refrigerant absorbs heat from the inside air passing through the evaporator and evaporates, turning into a gas. The gas is then sucked in by the compressor for the next cycle.

What is the GREEN tire?

GREEN is an environmentally friendly tire model by Michelin. Some Michelin tire models feature the GREEN-X mark, indicating they utilize Michelin's GREEN-X technology for eco-friendly tires. Michelin was founded in 1889 in Clermont-Ferrand, France. The company has undergone continuous innovation and development, operating across five continents with R&D centers in Europe, North America, and Asia. Michelin tires are marketed in over 170 countries worldwide. Michelin's GREEN-X marked tires use a special rubber compound with lower rolling resistance. Many tires in Michelin's PRIMACY and ENERGY series carry the GREEN-X eco-label, including brands like BFGoodrich, Uniroyal, Kleber, Riken, Siam, and Taurus. Michelin's "fuel-efficient tires" are designed with advanced materials and tread patterns, allowing the vehicle to coast significantly farther than conventional tires after engine power is cut off. The silica-based GreenX technology reduces fuel consumption. These tires offer benefits like excellent elasticity, low rolling resistance, reduced fuel usage, low heat generation, wear resistance, puncture resistance, high load capacity, and ride comfort. Compared to traditional tires, they demonstrate advantages in environmental protection, energy efficiency, new manufacturing processes, and materials. During driving, energy is consumed by various resistances, with about 20% of gasoline used to overcome tire rolling resistance. Fuel-efficient tread compounds can effectively reduce this resistance. A car equipped with four "fuel-efficient tires" can save approximately 5% in fuel consumption on average. Michelin tires are known for quietness and comfort, with soft treads. The brand offers five main product series: Pilot High-Performance Series: Sporty tires focused on high performance and handling, mainly for sports cars or supercars. Primacy Quiet & Comfort Series: Representing Michelin's comfort and quietness, with models like Primacy LC Bo Yue (positioned for quietness, comfort, and fuel efficiency) and Primacy HP (positioned for quietness, comfort, and handling). The 3ST model emphasizes safety and quiet comfort. Energy Economy & Durability Series: Focused on economy and durability, offering excellent wear resistance, wet performance, and environmental features. Includes XM1 (economy and durability), XM2 (durability and safety), and MXV8. Latitude SUV Series: Designed for SUVs, with strong off-road performance, comfort, wear resistance, and durability, expanding Michelin's presence in the SUV tire market. X-ICE Winter Series: Winter tires for snow and ice conditions, featuring excellent performance on slippery surfaces, durability, quietness, and unique tread water evacuation design. For daily use of Michelin eco-friendly tires, consider the following tips: Regularly inspect tires for cracks or deformations. As tread wears down, grooves become shallower. Worn treads lose traction and water evacuation capabilities, significantly reducing performance. Small cracks may lead to blowouts at high speeds. Also, remove stones lodged in grooves promptly. Park on level ground. Avoid parking on surfaces with sharp or protruding stones. Keep tires away from oil, acids, or other substances that degrade rubber. Avoid turning the steering wheel when parked to prevent accelerated wear. Do not cool overheated tires with water. In hot weather or after high-speed driving, tires may overheat, increasing pressure. Let them cool naturally; never deflate or splash water, as this may cause abnormal tread aging. Avoid sudden braking. Minimize frequent or hard braking to prevent excessive tread wear from skidding.

What is Automotive Urea All About?

Automotive urea is a liquid used in SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction) technology to reduce nitrogen oxide pollution in diesel vehicle exhaust. It is applied in diesel engines. Diesel Exhaust Fluid (commonly known as automotive urea, vehicle urea, or automotive environmental urea in China) is a consumable essential for SCR technology. Here is more information about automotive urea: 1. Automotive urea can catalyze the reduction of nitrogen oxides (NOx) in diesel vehicle exhaust into harmless nitrogen (N2) and water in the Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) system. 2. If urea is not used, or if the urea quality is inferior or purity insufficient, it can cause the vehicle's engine to automatically reduce speed and pollute the catalyst in the SCR catalytic reaction tank, leading to serious consequences. 3. Generally, the remaining amount of urea is displayed on the dashboard (similar to the fuel gauge). When the urea is depleted, a vehicle indicator light will illuminate as a reminder. The usage of urea is approximately 3% to 5% of the fuel consumption.

How many hours does it take to charge a 72V 20Ah battery?

For an electric vehicle equipped with a 72V 20Ah battery, the charging time from a fully discharged state is approximately 8 to 10 hours. Below are detailed explanations: 1. Charging Duration For an electric vehicle equipped with a 72V 20Ah battery, the charging time from a fully discharged state is approximately 8 to 10 hours. It is generally recommended to continue floating charging for 2 hours after the indicator light turns green before disconnecting the power. 2. Charging Capacity For lead-acid batteries used in electric vehicles, the typical charging capacity is 1.05 times the discharged capacity. For a 72V 20Ah battery, assuming it is fully discharged (i.e., at rated capacity), the required charging capacity would be 20 * 1.05 = 21Ah. With an average charging voltage of 77.4V, the total power consumption is approximately 1.63 kWh.
