Fuel Cell Vehicle (FCV) is a type of vehicle that uses electricity generated by an onboard fuel cell device as its power source. Detailed Explanation: The fuel used in the onboard fuel cell device is high-purity hydrogen or high-hydrogen reformate gas obtained from reforming hydrogen-containing fuels. Compared to conventional electric vehicles, the difference in power lies in the fact that FCVs derive their electricity from the onboard fuel cell device, while electric vehicles obtain their electricity from batteries charged by the grid. Therefore, the key component of an FCV is the fuel cell. Additional Information: A fuel cell is a highly efficient power generation device that directly converts the chemical energy of fuel into electrical energy through electrochemical reactions without burning the fuel. It is entirely different from the traditional principle of rotary mechanical power generation, where conductors cut magnetic lines. This electrochemical reaction is a static power generation method that produces electricity without any moving parts. As a result, fuel cells offer advantages such as high efficiency, low noise, and zero pollutant emissions, ensuring that FCVs become truly efficient and clean vehicles.

Should the cracked front wheel liner be replaced?

If the damage is minor, it is recommended to repair it. In severe cases, replacement is advised. The fender is the outer body panel that covers the wheel, designed to comply with fluid dynamics, reducing the drag coefficient to ensure smoother driving. More detailed explanations are as follows: 1. The front fender is installed near the front wheel and must ensure the maximum clearance for wheel rotation and movement. Therefore, designers use 'wheel travel diagrams' based on the selected tire model and size to verify whether the fender's design dimensions are appropriate. The rear fender does not face issues with wheel rotation interference, but for aerodynamic considerations, it is slightly arched and protrudes outward. Nowadays, some car fenders are integrated with the car body, manufactured in one seamless process. 2. Additionally, the front fender helps prevent gravel and mud splashed by the wheels from reaching the undercarriage during driving, reducing damage and corrosion to the chassis. Therefore, the materials used must be resistant to weather aging and have good formability. Currently, many car front fenders are made of elastic plastic materials, providing a certain level of cushioning for enhanced safety.

What's the matter with the navigation screen being black but still having sound?

Navigation screen being black but still having sound may be due to a loose power plug of the navigation display; it could also be caused by a damaged touch screen. If the touch screen is functioning normally, then check for issues with the display screen. Inspect the touch circuit to confirm if there are any problems with the wiring. If no issues are found, consider whether the decoding chip or core module is not working or is damaged. Here is more information about car navigation: 1. Car navigation systems have GPS global satellite positioning functionality. Drivers only need to input the destination into the car navigation system. The system will automatically calculate the most suitable route based on electronic maps and remind the driver to follow the calculated route during the vehicle's movement (for example, before turning). The car GPS navigation system consists of two parts: one part is composed of the GPS receiver and display device installed in the car; the other part is the computer control center, with the two parts connected via positioning satellites. 2. Most car navigation systems use a visual display system as the human-machine interface. Some provide voice systems, allowing people to directly converse with the navigation system and receive voice reminders on when to turn or exit the highway. Some can also provide the car owner with a map of the traveled route for the return trip. Some car navigation systems can display in different languages and can inform the driver of local speed limits, road conditions, and the car's average speed, estimating the time of arrival at the destination for the driver.

What is the difference between aluminum alloy and cast iron cylinder blocks?

The differences between aluminum alloy and cast iron cylinder blocks are: 1. Gravity: Cast iron: Good high-temperature resistance and less prone to deformation. Cast iron engines are easier to repair and have lower costs when worn out; Aluminum alloy: Lightweight and fast heat dissipation. Lightweight aluminum alloy engines can effectively reduce the engine's own weight, achieving relatively better fuel efficiency. 2. Material: The materials used for engines are mainly divided into two types nowadays. One is aluminum alloy, and the other is cast iron. 3. Heat dissipation: Aluminum alloy has excellent heat dissipation performance, which is incomparable to cast iron.

Should the front windshield be tinted?

Front windshields need to be tinted. Because the front windshield is the most exposed to sunlight and requires explosion-proof protection. However, the tint should not be too dark, as it may affect the driver's visibility and make it difficult to see the road ahead. Here is more information about window films: 1. The front windshield is the main area that best reflects the performance of automotive explosion-proof and heat-insulating films, including explosion-proof, UV resistance, heat insulation, and anti-glare properties. 2. High-quality, highly transparent films should be selected. According to the 'Technical Specifications for Safety of Power-Driven Vehicles Operating on Roads' GB7258—2012, implemented on September 1, 2012, 'The visible light transmittance of the windshield and other glass areas in the driver's line of sight must be greater than or equal to 70%, and no mirrored reflective sunshade films are allowed on any window glass.' Therefore, front windshield films with a transmittance of over 70% and a visible light reflectance below 10% can be applied without significantly affecting driving visibility. 3. In terms of clarity, regardless of the film's darkness, high-quality films allow visibility of objects approximately 6 meters away at night, while inferior films create a blurry effect.

Does Revving in Neutral Gear Damage the Car?

Revving in neutral gear does not damage the car, because in neutral state, the engine load is small and natural wear is minimal. However, revving in neutral consumes a lot of fuel, typically about 6 milliliters per rev, with engine speed reaching 4,000 to 5,000 RPM or even higher, equivalent to driving hundreds of meters at 160 km/h. Here is a brief introduction about neutral gear: Neutral gear refers to the state where the vehicle's gear lever is not engaged in any forward or reverse gear, and the transmission is completely separated from the engine. For manual transmissions, neutral is in the middle position, while for automatic transmissions, it is marked with an "N".
