Wheel slip refers to the phenomenon where the locomotive wheels slide relative to the rails during rotation. Methods to prevent this phenomenon are as follows: Install a wheel slip protection device in the locomotive's control circuit: Wheel slip not only prevents the locomotive's wheel-rim traction from being fully utilized but may also lead to slope stopping accidents and cause damage to both wheels and rail surfaces. To prevent wheel slip, a wheel slip protection device is installed in the locomotive's control circuit. Locomotive sanding device for rail surfaces: Composed of sanders, sanding electro-pneumatic valves, sandboxes, and pipelines. Sanding increases the adhesion coefficient between wheels and rails, thereby enhancing adhesion traction and preventing wheel slip.

How Many Kilometers Can You Drive When the Fuel Gauge Light Comes On?

When the fuel gauge light comes on in a typical car, there is usually at least 8L of fuel remaining in the tank. Conservatively estimated, you can still drive approximately 30 kilometers. Here are some solutions when the fuel gauge light comes on: 1. Find a nearby gas station as soon as possible; 2. Avoid sudden braking and driving at very low speeds, as low-speed driving also consumes fuel; 3. Maintain a steady speed and drive smoothly. According to tests, for low-displacement cars (1.3-1.8L), the most fuel-efficient speed range is between 45-65km/h, while for cars with 2.0-3.0L engines, the most fuel-efficient speed is between 55-75km/h; 4. Turn off all electrical devices in the car. Navigation, radio, music, air conditioning, etc., and close the windows to reduce wind resistance, which helps save fuel; 5. Pay attention to road conditions. Try to drive on smoother roads, as bumpy roads can increase fuel consumption.
