Maximum wading depth i.e. the tire ground contact point of the engine into the distance, between the English name Wattiefe port. The maximum wading depth is the maximum depth in the safe driving conditions, can wade through, that is safe depth. Evaluation is also an important indicator of off-road, the larger the car the maximum wading depth, the stronger its wading capability.
1. Noun interpretation maximum wading depth
Maximum wading depth of the tire ground contact point of the engine i.e. the distance between the intake port, the English name Wattiefe. The maximum wading depth is the maximum depth in the safe driving conditions, can wade through, that is safe depth. Evaluation is also an important indicator of off-road, the larger the car the maximum wading depth, the stronger its wading capability.
2. Wading factors maximum depth of the vehicle
substantially, the automobile wading depth is determined by the height of the vehicle chassis, i.e. in the model parameter configuration table “clearance “a (some models will give” maximum wading depth “). The greater ground clearance, the higher the chassis you through the water surface when the safety factor is higher. On ride height, the advantages of off-road vehicles, SUV and popular in recent years, CROSS models is obvious. But in the face of most low-chassis compact class cars and small cars, it should be by the water surface in a vehicle air intake position as the scale.
If wading intake port is lower than the water level, the water will be drawn into the cylinder of the engine, since the compressed air that, unlike water, it would be a mechanical structure of the engine (rod, piston, crankshaft etc.) cause serious damage. Therefore wading depth can not exceed the height of the engine air intake. You can also achieve the engine air intake height is to enhance the maximum wading depth of wading through the installation of the throat.
