Reasons for Water in Car Exhaust Pipe in Winter

[MacGiselle]

It is normal for a car's exhaust pipe to drip water. More information about water dripping from a car's exhaust pipe is as follows: 1. Water dripping from the car's exhaust pipe indicates that the fuel is fully burned in the engine, causing the exhaust pipe to drip water outward. This is actually a very normal phenomenon. The reason the exhaust pipe drips water is due to the low ambient temperature. After complete combustion of gasoline, water and carbon dioxide are produced. 2. At high temperatures, water is in the form of vapor. The dripping is the result of condensation of water vapor in the exhaust pipe and muffler. However, when the ambient temperature is high, the water vapor is expelled before it condenses. When the ambient temperature is low, the water vapor condenses into water droplets on the exhaust pipe wall and flows out along the pipe.
