Many people are complaining that the speed of rising gas prices is like riding on a rocket. Some even say that Zhang, if it breaks the 10 yuan mark, save the money and just go to shared bicycles. Complaints are complaints, the car must be driven when it should be driven, and bad driving behavior needs to be corrected. After all, saving fuel means saving money, but saving fuel is not something that can be achieved by pressing the accelerator less. If you want to save fuel, you must know where the fuel is consumed?
The engine is the heart of the car. When the engine does work, heat will be lost, and fuel will naturally be consumed. There is also a larger part consumed by the tires against resistance and air resistance, which consumes a lot of fuel. Of course, the transmission system will also consume Energy, and automatic transmission is larger than manual transmission; vehicle equipment, power supply and cooling, etc. will also consume energy; in addition to these, there is also a very energy-consuming component, that is, the heat energy on the brake pads. This consumed energy is directly lost. But the fuel energy consumed is very large.
Pressing the accelerator less is not the most fuel-efficient. From the above, in fact, the largest part of the energy generated by fuel consumption is consumed by tire friction and braking. Therefore, pressing the accelerator less is not the most fuel-efficient way. Braking properly is better than braking less Stepping on the accelerator saves more fuel.
