29
4. MOTOR VEHICLE TECHNOLOGY
4.1 Introduction
A motor vehicle is a self-propelled road vehicle and movement is carried
with the help of no. of wheels installed on itself. Vehicle propulsion is
done by engine power or electric motor or sometimes both (hybrid
vehicle). There are several systems that combines to function an
automobile. Each system is primarily independent but is influenced by the
other system interacting with it. Some of the systems are described below.

4.2 The transmission system


Transmission systems enable automobiles to transfer mechanical energy
from an engine to the wheels. It comprises of gearbox, flywheel, clutch,
propeller shaft, differential/transaxle and other various electrical units
which serves as a bridge to transfer power and energy from engine to the
wheels. Cruising speed is maintained with the help of transmission system
without disturbing the performance of vehicle.

4.3 The electrical system


The electrical system comprises of battery, starter, and alternator. When
we need to start the engine, the battery provides the required power to
starter initially. After the engine is started, the alternator gives that batter
30
energy to

31
power the car. The alternator is rotated by using rotational energy from
crankshaft of an engine and is inter-connected by fan belt. Initially,
batteries provide all the required electrical current to the ignitions and fuel
system which are necessary for creating combustion necessary for the
engine to function. A starter motor serves as a bridge between battery and
engine cranking process. When the starter motor gets the power, a solenoid
switch pushes the ring gear which then mates with the ring gear of the
flywheel, which provides cranking power to the crankshaft of the vehicle.
When combustion starts alternator provides energy to the battery which
needs for the proper functioning of the vehicle until an engine is turned
off. If the alternator is not functioning properly, electrical systems of
automobile will perform inconsistently. eventually battery gets discharged
and engine power will be lost.

4.4 The fuel system


Three things are required for all internal combustion engines to operate:
air, fuel, and spark. The storage and delivery of gasoline or diesel engines
needs to run depend heavily on the fuel system. The gasoline pump, fuel
lines, and filter are all parts of the fuel system. The consequences of any of
these fuel system failures are catastrophic for the vehicle.

32
Fuel tank
This is essentially agasoline storage tank. The gas flows down the filler
tube and into the tank when you fill up at a gas station. A transmittingunit
in the tank notifies the gas gauge how much gas is in the tank. The gas
tank has gotten a little more complex in recent years since it now
frequently houses the fuel pump and has more pollution controls to prevent
vapors from seeping into the air.

Fuel pump
The fuel pump can often be found in the fuel tank of modern vehicles. In
older vehicles, the fuel pump was either linked to the engine or mounted
on the frame rail between the tank and the engine. If the pump is in the
tank or on the frame rail, it is electric and is powered by the vehicle's
battery. fuel pumps attached to engines use the engine's motion to pump
gasoline, most often the camshaft, but sometimes the crankshaft.

Fuel filter Clean gasoline is essential for engine durability and


performance. Fuel injectors and carburetors have tiny holes that clog
easily; therefore, fuel filtration is required. Filters can be installed before
or after the fuel pump, or both. They are often composed of paper but can
also be made of stainless steel or synthetic material and are intended to be
disposable in most circumstances. Some performance fuel filters have
washable mesh, eliminating the need for replacement.

33
Carburetors
In a carburetor, air is mixed with incoming fuel. It is simple in operation
but needs frequent tuning and rebuilding. So, in modern cars, fuel
injection is widely used.

Fuel injectors
The fuel injector is a small electronic valve that opens and shuts in
response to an electric signal. By injecting fuel near to the cylinder head,
the fuel remains atomized (in tiny particles), allowing it to burn more
efficiently when ignited by the spark plug.

4.5 The braking system


The car's braking system is intended solely to do one thing: safely stop the
vehicle. To do this, three main elements arerequired: a vehicle operator,
hydraulic pressure, and friction. When the driver depresses the brake
pedal, the pedal levers and rods activate the power brake booster. The
booster multiplies the force from the operator's foot to the master cylinder
using engine vacuum or a pump. Hydraulic lines attached to the master
cylinder travel to a proportioning valve or the ABS (Antilock Brake
System) module, then to each brake caliper if the vehicle has disc brakes,
or to the wheel cylinder if the vehicle has drum brakes. The braking fluid
in the lines runs into the calipers or wheel cylinders, and hydraulic
pressure pushes the brake pads against the rotors of the brake shoes against
the drums, generating friction and bringing the car to a halt.

34
Disc brakes
A disk brake system is made up of three parts: a rotating disk, a brake
caliper, and brake pads. When the brake pedal is depressed, pressurized
hydraulic brake fluid squeezes the brake pad friction material against the
revolving brake disc's surface. As a result of this contact, friction is
created, allowing the vehicle to slow or stop.

Drum brakes
A drum brake system includes hydraulic wheel cylinders, brake shoes, and
a drum. When the brake pedal is depressed, hydraulic wheel cylinders
drive twocurved brake shoes with a friction material lining against the
inner surface of a rotating brake drum. As a result of this contact, friction
is created, allowing the vehicle to slow or stop.

35
2.1.5 The suspension system
Suspension is the system of tires, tire air, coil springs, shock absorbers,
and link rod that connects a vehicle to its wheels and allows them to move
relative to one another. Suspension systems provide two functions: they
contribute to the vehicle's roadholding/handling and braking for good
active safety and driving enjoyment, and they keep vehicle passengers
comfortable and relatively well isolated from road noise, bumps, and
vibrations. The suspension also protects the vehicle from damage and
wear, as well as any cargo or luggage. A car's front and rear suspension
may be designed differently. The suspension system of a vehicle is
separated into two parts: front suspension and rear suspension.

The front suspension system


The front suspension's role is to withstand the vehicle's weight.
Automobiles usually use independent front suspension, which means that
if one of the tires travels over a bump, the other is unaffected. Ball joints,
control arms, lower arm bushings, coil springs. stabilizers, shock
absorbers, steering knuckle, and spindle are the essential components of
the front suspension.

36
The rear suspension system
The rear suspension system is intended to keep the back axle and wheels in
their appropriate location beneath the vehicle. To maintain alignment and
effective vehicle control, the rear suspension allows each of the back
wheels to travel up and down independently of the frame. The rear
suspension is a dependent suspension system which is connected to the
torsion bar of cars.

4.6 The steering system


The steering mechanism combines steering-wheel rotation into twisting
movement of the road wheels in such a way that the steering-wheel rim
turns a long distance to move the road wheels a little distance. The rack
and pinion and the steering box are the two most popular types of steering
systems. On larger vehicles, either system may be power assisted to lessen
the amount of work required to move it, especially when the vehicle is
moving slowly.

The rack-and-pinion system


A tiny pinion (gear wheel) is housed inside a housing at the base of the
steering column. Its teeth interlock with a straight row of teeth on a rack,
which is a long transverse bar. The rack moves from side to side when the
pinion is turned. Tie rods connect the rack's ends to the road wheels Its
operation is accurate, and the mechanism is simple. A universal joint in the
steering column connects it to the rack without unnecessarily tilting the
steering wheel side to side.

The steering-box system

37
A worm gear within a box is located at the base of the steering column. A
worm is a threaded cylinder, like a small bolt. Spinning the worm moves
everything that fits inside its thread.

4.7 The intake and exhaust systems

Intake system
The intake system's function is to manage the supply of clean, filtered air
to the engine at the proper temperature while also providing vacuum to run
other components. Crankcase vapors are likewise drawn into the intake
stream by the intake system and burned by the engine. Modern
automobiles have a lot more intake plumbing to accommodate smaller
engine bays that have a lot more electronics packed into them.

The exhaust system


The exhaust system is a component in a vehicle's engine that handles the
burned gas produced by the engine. It is made up of exhaust pipes that
carry exhaust gas from one chamber to another, a header that collects the
same gas from different cylinders and directs it to the pipes, a catalytic
converter that converts pollutant gases produced during combustion into
less harmful substances, a muffler that reduces engine noise, and a
turbocharger that increases engine power.

converter that converts pollutant gases produced during combustion into
less harmful substances, a muffler that reduces engine noise, and a
turbocharger that increases engine power. The exhaust system is critical to
every vehicle since it determines the life and performance of the engine.
Back pressure in an engine prevents it from working properly. Exhaust gas
clogs an engine and prevents it from performing useful work. As a result,
the car cannot operate smoothly and quietly, and in worst-case scenarios, it
will not run at all.
