Why does the car keep making noise after being turned off?

The reason the car keeps making noise after being turned off is due to the engine cooling fan. After shutting off the engine, the electric fan continues to operate for a period to dissipate heat from the engine coolant circulation system. Below is an introduction to engines: 1. Introduction: An engine (Engine) is a machine capable of converting other forms of energy into mechanical energy. The first external combustion engine was invented by R. Stirling in the UK (Scotland) in 1816 and later improved by Watt into a steam engine. 2. Applicability: Engines can be used as power generation devices or refer to the entire machine including the power unit (e.g., gasoline engines, aircraft engines). 3. Types: Types include internal combustion engines (e.g., gasoline engines), external combustion engines (e.g., Stirling engines, steam engines), gas turbines (used in racing cars), electric motors, etc.
Last time my car kept buzzing after turning off, which really worried me. I asked a familiar car repair friend, and he explained that it might be the cooling fan continuing to run for a few minutes to help cool the engine, which is quite normal when the engine is hot; or it could be the metal in the exhaust system cooling and contracting, making a clicking sound, which doesn’t last long. But if the ticking sound persists, it might be the system warning of a low battery, or the anti-theft alarm misfiring. I personally checked under the hood and found no debris stuck in the fan blades; after a few minutes, the sound stopped. It’s advised not to walk away immediately after turning off the engine. If the sound continues, it’s best to visit a repair shop to avoid draining the battery. Regularly washing the car should include rinsing the radiator to prevent dust from causing the fan to overwork.
