Car “fire” has rules to follow, spontaneous combustion can be vaccinated[汽车维修知识]

In the hot summer, when heatstroke bothers us, our car is also suffering from a'self-immolation' event that is even more terrifying than human heatstroke.Since the beginning of July, there have been 42 cases in the statistics of the Beijing Municipal Fire Bureau in just one week.carSpontaneous combustion event.
Judging from some reports that have repeatedly appeared in the media, auto-ignition is a problem that cannot be ignored.
There is a rule to follow when cars are “fired.” July is the hottest month of the year in most parts of China, except for the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, Tianshan Mountains, and Daxinganling Mountains.
Under such high temperature conditions, the human body will be uncomfortable, and our car, like humans, will also get angry because of the temperature. However, it would not be worth the gain if everyone came to'protest' against the high temperature at the cost of'self-immolation'.
Is spontaneous combustion of a car really terrifying like a scourge?
The reporter interviewed Professor Jin Guodong, the deputy dean and chief engineer of the Electric Vehicle Research Institute of Huazhong University of Science and Technology. Let Professor Jin take us to analyze the causes of automobile spontaneous combustion.
Professor Jin believes that cars are prone to spontaneous combustion in summer, and high temperature is the main cause, but what really makes him ignite spontaneouslycar maintenanceCaused by impropriety.
First of all, the car lacks proper maintenance for a long time, the wires in the car are aging, and the wires are exposed, which is easy to produce sparks;
Secondly, many people make arbitrary and irregular modifications to the car, which will also cause a short circuit and bury the hidden danger of spontaneous combustion.
Third, the ignition point of gasoline is very low, but spontaneous combustion only occurs when there is an open flame.existtankIn the case of oil leakage, if there is a short circuit of the electric wire or a collision of a car, spontaneous combustion is likely to occur.
Know yourself and the enemy, let the car automatically'fire-extinguishing'
Professor Jin reminded the majority of consumers not to put everyone at risk. In the absence of corresponding maintenance measures, cars are prone to spontaneous combustion, but normal cars do not easily "fire" under high temperature conditions. Because, in the car design process, designers will take into account the national temperature conditions, and the working environment of the engine is definitely within this temperature range.
Generally, you can use'see' and'sniff' to kill spontaneous combustion in the cradle.
The so-called look is that in normal times, after using the car, pay attention to normal maintenance work, and always check whether the wires are short-circuited and whether there is oil leakage.
During the course of the car, a car that spontaneously ignites will usually have a burnt and paste smell in the early stage of spontaneous combustion. Once the car owner smells this smell, he must pull over and check to avoid greater losses.
In addition, when parking, choose a place with shade to let the car take a good rest. If there are some flammable items in the parking place, such as weeds, waste paper, etc., pay more attention at this time.Carexhaust pipeAfter working in high temperature weather in summer, the temperature is generally very high. When encountering these flammable products, it will inevitably "ignite the upper body" and cause its own spontaneous combustion while causing external objects to burn.
Professor Jin revealed that some high-end cars can extinguish the fire invisible after installing certain equipment.This is to install a temperature in the engine compartmentsensor, Also known as fire sourcesensorAfter a fire occurs, it can automatically extinguish the fire after receiving the signal, so that it will not cause big losses. It's just that such devices have become rare these days.
With these measures, the car will no longer “get angry” for no reason, and use spontaneous combustion to warn his owner that he did not take good care of it.
