Why is water dripping from the car chassis?
1 Answers
Liquid water is discharged from the exhaust pipe as the engine operates at high speed, causing water to drip from the car chassis. Here are the details: Introduction: When gasoline is injected into the cylinder and mixed with air, it burns completely in the combustion chamber, primarily producing carbon dioxide and water. The water is discharged into the atmosphere as water vapor in a gaseous state under high temperatures. Since the muffler is located at the rear of the car where the temperature is relatively low, the water vapor condenses into liquid water upon cooling. Some of this liquid water is expelled from the exhaust pipe due to the airflow generated by the high-speed operation of the engine, resulting in water dripping or even spraying from the exhaust pipe. Abnormal phenomena related to the car chassis include: Oil leakage from lubricants—if oil or gear oil leaks when the car is started after being parked for several hours, it indicates a problem. Coolant leakage—coolant not only prevents freezing but also has anti-corrosion, anti-rust, and heat-conducting properties. If liquid is found leaking from the upper or lower hoses of the radiator or if there is leakage from the radiator itself, immediate repair is necessary.
