Here is a detailed introduction to the calculation of gear tooth width: 1. Calculation formulas: For helical gears, the coefficient is 0.4; for herringbone gears, the coefficient ranges from 0.5 to 1.0; for straight bevel gears, tooth width = gear coefficient × outer cone distance; for worm gears, tooth width = 0.65 × worm pitch diameter. A larger tooth width coefficient results in a wider gear, which increases the gear's load-bearing capacity but also leads to uneven load distribution along the tooth direction. 2. Classification: Gears can be classified based on tooth profile, gear shape, tooth line shape, the surface where the teeth are located, and manufacturing methods. The tooth profile of a gear includes the tooth curve, pressure angle, tooth height, and modification angle.

Is it okay to keep the car in S mode on the highway?

It is acceptable to keep the car in S mode on the highway, but it will result in relatively higher fuel consumption and increase the load on the transmission, leading to accelerated wear. Here is more information about S mode: 1. S mode is the sport mode: In S mode, the transmission can shift freely, but the shifting timing is delayed, keeping the engine at high RPM for a longer period. This allows the car to operate at lower gears with higher RPM for an extended duration, resulting in greater torque output and acceleration. 2. Avoid prolonged use of S mode: Since fuel injection increases at high RPM, S mode consumes significantly more fuel than normal mode. However, using S mode also has benefits. For cars frequently driven in congested urban areas, engine carbon buildup can be significant. Therefore, using S mode periodically helps remove carbon deposits from the engine, improving fuel economy and extending engine life.

What is the fuel consumption of the Nissan Sylphy Classic Edition?

The average fuel consumption of the Nissan Sylphy Classic Edition is 7.37L/100km. Below is detailed information about the Nissan Sylphy: 1. Overview: The Nissan Sylphy is a mid-size sedan under Dongfeng Motor Co., Ltd., and is one of the most typical mainstream family cars in the Chinese market. On August 28, 2020, the 2021 Nissan Sylphy was officially launched by Dongfeng Nissan. The new car, based on the 14th generation Sylphy, has added more intelligent human-machine interconnection technology, exterior accessories, and comfort configurations, with a total of 4 models available. 2. Powertrain: The Nissan Sylphy is equipped with a 1.6L naturally aspirated engine that meets the China VI emission standards, with a maximum power output of 99kW (135 horsepower) and a peak torque of 159Nm. The transmission system is paired with a CVT gearbox.

Where is the engine sensor located?

Engine sensors are located at the crankshaft position and camshaft position. Here are the relevant details: 1. Crankshaft Position: The crankshaft position sensor is used to detect engine speed and provide crankshaft angle. The ECU uses the crankshaft position signal to determine fuel injection quantity and ignition timing advance, enabling the car to start normally. The sensor is installed near the flywheel. 2. Camshaft Position: The camshaft position sensor, also known as the phase sensor, detects the top dead center position of the engine cylinders. It works in conjunction with the crankshaft position sensor to start the engine and is installed near the camshaft. This helps adjust the fuel injection quantity to bring the actual air-fuel ratio closer to the theoretical air-fuel ratio.

How Much Fuel Should a Sedan Refuel?

There are two scenarios for refueling a sedan: 1. Short-distance driving: When driving short distances, the fuel should be filled up to 80% of the tank capacity. 2. Long-distance driving: For long trips, the fuel should be filled up to 90% of the tank capacity to avoid increasing the vehicle's load and causing unnecessary fuel consumption. Additional information: Refueling should be done when the fuel level drops to 1/4 of the tank capacity. Waiting until the tank is nearly empty can lead to the accumulation of impurities at the bottom of the tank, which may be drawn into the fuel system and cause poor fuel delivery. Moreover, an almost empty tank can trap air, which, due to large day-night temperature variations, can form condensation and mix with the fuel, leading to poor combustion.

How often should a car's timing belt be replaced?

Generally, it is common to replace the timing belt every 60,000 to 80,000 kilometers, but some may require replacement at longer intervals such as 80,000 to 100,000 kilometers. The exact replacement time is not entirely uniform, as each car brand and model has its own specific requirements. The precise timing should always be based on the "Owner's Manual" provided with the vehicle at the time of purchase. Below is more information about timing belts: 1. Function of the timing belt: The timing belt is a consumable automotive part made of rubber, which will degrade over time. It connects the camshaft and the crankshaft, controlling the opening and closing of the valves and coordinating the rotation of the crankshaft with the up-and-down movement of the pistons. 2. Effects of a broken timing belt: A broken timing belt will cause the valves to open and close at the wrong time, and the pistons to move out of sync. This misalignment can lead to the valves and pistons colliding, resulting in damage to both components. In such cases, the engine will cease to function and may require a major overhaul. 3. Impact on the engine: If the timing belt breaks, the engine will not operate properly, leading to symptoms such as unstable idling, poor acceleration, or failure to start. The engine may stall immediately. In multi-valve engines, a broken timing belt can cause the pistons to bend the valves, and in severe cases, the engine may be rendered completely inoperable.

Does a Car Need to Be Recharged with Freon?

Cars do not need to be recharged with Freon every year. There are two situations where Freon recharge is necessary: 1. Temperature does not reach 16°C: If the air vent of the indoor air conditioner cannot reach below 16°C, Freon needs to be added. 2. It takes a long time to reach 16°C: If the air vent can reach below 16°C but takes a long time, such as more than 5 or 6 minutes, Freon also needs to be added. Additional information: 1. When Freon needs to be added: During normal operation of the air conditioner, if bubbles continue to appear in the sight glass, it indicates a lack of Freon, and it needs to be added. 2. When Freon needs to be discharged: During normal operation of the air conditioner, if there are no bubbles in the sight glass, and when the air conditioner is turned off, no temporary bubbles appear, it indicates an excess of Freon, and it needs to be discharged. 3. When Freon is at the normal level: During normal operation of the air conditioner, if there are no bubbles in the sight glass, and when the air conditioner is turned off, temporary bubbles appear, it indicates that the Freon level is normal.
