What to Do If a Vehicle Accidentally Stalls Due to Water Ingestion?

[EstherDella]

Solutions for a vehicle that accidentally stalls due to water ingestion: Push the car to a higher ground area without water accumulation, call the insurance company, and then tow the vehicle to a repair shop to check the water damage. Possible reasons for stalling: 1. The engine stalls at low RPM because the exhaust pipe is submerged in water, causing excessive exhaust pressure that extinguishes the engine; 2. The air filter gets wet, leading to insufficient air intake and causing the engine to stall; 3. A small or large amount of water enters the engine, preventing it from functioning properly and causing it to stall. Stalling, also known as quenching, refers to the phenomenon where, when a reactor is operating at a significant reaction rate, if the temperature at the feed inlet is reduced to the lower limit of the multiplicity region, the reaction rate suddenly drops significantly, and the reaction essentially stops.
