What is the professional term for the throttle?
1 Answers
The professional term for the throttle is the accelerator pedal. Here is the relevant introduction: 1. Throttle pedal: Also known as the accelerator pedal, it is part of the car's fuel supply system. By controlling the amount of pedal depression, it regulates the engine throttle opening, controls the air intake, and the computer adjusts the fuel quantity, thereby controlling the engine speed. 2. Throttle: Also referred to as the "air valve" or "throttle valve." It is the control device that manages the engine power (thrust). In piston-type aircraft engines, the throttle controls the carburetor's throttle opening to regulate the cylinder's charge, thereby determining the engine's output power.
