1.0 Introduction
Automobile motor vehicle construction contributed a lot towards the economy of life in such a way that transportation is easier and quicker, with this we determined the distance man could travel, even without load. This motor vehicle is basically designed for domestic, and industrial use. This motor vehicle designed to operate using internal construction engine, which is the most convenient source of power so far developed for driving road vehicles, which drives its power from the burning of fuel and air inside the engine cylinder.
The internal combustion engine (I.C.E) converts the chemical energy in fuel into heat energy and heat energy into mechanical energy. The heat energy is produced by a chemical reaction between the different elements of fuel and air in other ward burning. This burning of fuel and air takes place inside sealed to expand in all directions. This expansion of gases caused the only movable object (the piston) in the sealed chamber to move down, hence transferring the power produced in the cylinder to the crankshaft of the engine and then creating mechanical energy.
1.1 Objectives of Study
The Objective of Motor Vehicle Construction
They are general objective of motor vehicle construction.
- First, understand the historical and technical development of motor vehicle
- Second objective is to understand the fundamental cycles of operation of he period and internal combustion engines.
- Third objective is to know the constructional processes of motor vehicle.
- Fourth objective is to understand the general principles of the transmission system of vehicle bodies. In order to achieve this we have to know the braking system and their operation principle and understanding the principles of steering mechanisms.
