The reason why the car air conditioner does not cool during the day but cools at night is poor condenser heat dissipation. The reasons for poor condenser heat dissipation are: 1. The condenser surface is too dirty; 2. There is air in the system; 3. The surrounding air is not circulating; 4. The ambient temperature is too high; 5. An oil film forms inside the condenser. The functions of the air conditioner: 1. Achieve cooling effect by continuously transforming and circulating the refrigerant; 2. Use the engine coolant, waste heat, or heat generated by a burner as a heat source for heating, which is then heated by the heater and blown into the car by the blower to increase the temperature and achieve a heating effect; 3. Draw in fresh external air for ventilation and air exchange to prevent windshield fogging.

Function: Engine oil, also known as engine lubricant, serves to lubricate and reduce friction, assist in cooling, seal against leaks, prevent rust and corrosion, and cushion shocks in the engine. 2. Classification: Gasoline engine oils are divided into two types: mineral oils and synthetic oils. Synthetic oils are further categorized into semi-synthetic and fully synthetic oils. 3. Composition: Engine oil consists of two parts: base oil and additives. The base oil is the main component of the lubricant, determining its basic properties, while additives compensate for and improve the shortcomings of the base oil, imparting new characteristics, making them an essential part of the lubricant.

What are the impacts of damage to the sidewall of a car tire?

Damage to the sidewall of a car tire can easily lead to a blowout. Below is relevant information about car tires: 1. Functions of tires: To support the entire weight of the vehicle, bear the load of the car, and transmit forces and moments in other directions; to transmit traction and braking torque, ensuring good adhesion between the wheel and the road surface to improve the car's power, braking, and passability; to work together with the car suspension to mitigate the impact experienced during driving. 2. Tire lifespan: The lifespan of a tire is related to many factors, such as climate, road conditions, driving habits, installation, maintenance, and repairs. If the tire is used normally, it must be replaced when the tread depth wears down to 1.6 millimeters.
