Aluminum alloy wheels have an impact on the plateau, but the impact is small . The impact of plateau environment on vehicles is mainly reflected in the following aspects:
Power output attenuation : The thin air in the plateau region and insufficient combustion lead to power attenuation. Usually, the power decreases by 10% for every 1,000m elevation rise
one.
lubricating oil quality decline : under the environment of plateau and low pressure, the quality of automotive lubricating oil will decline, which may lead to increased wear of parts
one.
Reduced braking function : at high altitude, the vacuum pumping capacity of the vacuum booster pump decreases, the braking power is weakened, and a longer braking distance is required
one.
The advantages of aluminum wheels include:
portable : aluminum alloy wheel density is small, about 1/3 of steel, reduce the overall weight of the vehicle, improve fuel efficiency.
heat dissipation fast : aluminum alloy thermal conductivity is high, heat dissipation performance is better than steel hub.
beautiful : aluminum alloy wheel after corrosion resistant treatment and painting and coloring, the color is diverse and exquisite beautiful
good shock absorber : aluminum alloy wheels have good shock absorber performance, which is helpful to improve driving comfort
Therefore, although the plateau environment has a certain impact on the vehicle, the lightweight and good heat dissipation performance of the aluminum alloy wheels can reduce these effects to a certain extent, and improve the driving performance and comfort of the vehicle in the plateau area.
