What does kpa mean in cars?
1 Answers
kpa in cars refers to tire pressure, which is the air pressure inside the tires. There are several methods for monitoring tire pressure: 1. Direct tire pressure monitoring; 2. Indirect tire pressure monitoring; 3. Using an intelligent tire monitoring system. The effects of excessive tire pressure are: 1. Reduced friction and adhesion, affecting braking performance; 2. Causing steering wheel vibration and deviation, reducing driving comfort; 3. Accelerating wear on the central tread pattern, decreasing tire lifespan. The effects of insufficient tire pressure are: 1. Increased friction coefficient with the road surface; 2. Making the steering wheel heavy and prone to deviation; 3. Increased movement of various parts of the tire, leading to abnormal heating due to excessive rolling.
