    Introduction to Automobile

    Engineering

    ME-467
    Credit Hours:3.00
    Introduction
     Automobile or Automotive engineering is a branch of
    engineering which deals with the study as how to design,
    manufacture and operate automobile and also their
    respective engineering sub-systems.

     An automobile engineers main duty is to design, test


    and develops vehs / components from concept stage
    through to production stage. The veh after being launched in
    the market also need improvement.

     Then it come to the duty of the automobile engineers to


    improve the veh in response to customer feedback.
    What is Automobile?
    What is Automobile?

    The automobile is a self propelled vehicle that travels on


    land. It usually has four wheels. An engine provides the
    power to move the vehicle.

    Automobiles are normally used to transport people and


    items from one location to another location Different types of
    automobile include cars, buses, vans and trucks, with cars
    being the most popular by far.
    Anatomy of an Automobile
    Anatomy of an Automobile
    Construction of the Automobile
     An engine is a machine that converts heat energy into
    mechanical energy. The heat from a fuel produces power
    which moves the vehicle.
    Construction of the Automobile

     A power train, to carry the power from the


    engine to the drive wheels. 
     A suspension system that absorbs the shock
    of the tires and wheels meeting bumps and holes in
    the road.
     A steering system, so the driver can control
    the direction of vehicle travel.
     A braking system, so the driver can slow and
    stop the vehicle.
    Suspension &Steering System
    Under the Hood

    a. Engine.
    b. Air conditioning
    Compressor.
    c. Alternator.
    d. Starting motor.
    e. Power steering pump.
    f. Supercharger
    or Turbocharger.
    g. Battery.
    h.
    . Brake booster.
    Identifying the drive wheels

    a. Rear wheel drive (RWD).


    b. Front wheel drive (FWD).
    c. Four wheel drive (4WD).

    Sources of Power
    In the automobile engine power is produced by
    burning a mixture of air and fuel inside engine
    cylinders.
    Front Wheel Drive (FWD)
    Rear Wheel Drive (RWD)
    Four wheel drive (4WD)
    Supporting Engine operation
    1. The fuel System. The fuel system mixes
    gasoline or similar fuel with air to make a mixture
    that will burn in the engine cylinders. Fuel system
    uses following components to make the air fuel
    mixture:
    a. Carburetor
    b. Electronic firing ignition (EFI).
    c. Electronic control module (ECM)
    d. Fuel injector. Throttle body injector and
    Port injector
    Fuel Supply System (SI)
    Fuel Supply System (SI)
    Fuel Supply System (CI)
    Fuel Supply System (CI)
    Lubrication System

    2. The Lubrication System. Keeps all moving


    parts inside the engine coated with layers of oil.

    a. Reduces on the parts.


    b. Allows the parts to move freely with little
    power lost in making them move

    Lubrication System (DRY SUMP)
    Cooling System

    3. The cooling System. Burning fuel inside the


    engine cylinder produces heat. If some of the heat
    is not removed, metal engine parts will melt. The
    cooling system removes just enough heat so the
    engine runs at the proper temp.

    4. The ignition System. Provides the sparks.


    Transmission System

    5. The Transmission System. Getting Power to


    the wheel.
    (1) The power Train.
    (2) The Clutch.
    (3) Transmissions and Transaxles.
    (4) Automatic Transmissions and Transaxles.

    Brake system

    6. The braking system. Helps the driver to slow


    and stop the moving vehicles. There are two kinds
    of brakes at the wheels:
    Brake system
    Electrical System

    7. The Electrical System.


    a. Provide electricity to the starting motor
    to crank the engine.
    b. Provide electricity to the spark plugs.
    c. Provide electricity to the fuel ignition
    system.
      d. Provide electricity to the charging
    system, light, horns, radio and
    Electrical System
    Air Conditioning System
