FUEL INJECTION PUMP - Fuel injection pump sucks fuel from the tank , pressurises the fuel to approx. 600 - 1000 bar and sends it to the injectors. Inline FIP - Has separate pumping chambers for each cylinder Rotary FIP(Distributor pump) - Has one pumping chamber and the pump distributes to each cylinder as per sequence- firing order 2. INJECTORS - Inject the high pressure fuel in to each cylinder. 3. FUEL FILTER - Filters the fuel from dirt & sediments, since the Fuel injection pump requires clean fuel. Slide 28: A.

COMPONENTS OF THE INTAKE SYSTEM AIR FILTER TURBO CHARGER INTERCOOLER AIR FILTER CLOGGING INDICATOR HOSES Slide 30: INTAKE SYSTEM ENGINE AIR FILTER NATURALLY ASPIRATED ENGINE CLOGGING INDICATOR EXHAUST Slide 31: INTAKE SYSTEM ENGINE AIR FILTER TURBO CHARGED/INTERCOOLED ENGINE INTERCOOLER CLOGGING INDICATOR TURBOCHARGER EXHAUST AIR AT ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE HOT COMPRESSED AIR COOL COMPRESSED AIR Slide 32: INTAKE SYSTEM 1. AIR FILTER - The purpose of the air filter is to clean the atmospheric air of dirt & dust before entering the engine cylinder. Air filters needs to cleaned regularly and replaced at recommended intervals. 2. CLOGGING INDICATOR - Clogging indicator indicates the condition of the air filter as to whether is clean or choked. A visible RED band in the indicator indicates choked air filter Slide 33: INTAKE SYSTEM 3. TURBOCHARGER - The turbo charger utilizes the wasted heat energy in the exhaust system, to run a compressor which compresses the intake air. Compressed intake air has more density and hence more fuel can be injected increasing the power of the engine. Turbo charging is an ideal way to increase the engine power without increasing the engine size. For trouble free performance of turbocharger a clean air filter element is a must. A turbo charger spins at very high speed (~ 1.6 Lakh RPM). The turbo charger is lubricated by engine oil. If the engine is switched off abruptly , the oil supply to turbo bearing stops instantly. Since the turbine is running at very high speeds, it takes some time to wind down. During this time the turbine bearing can be starved off oil. Hence it is recommended to idle the engine for some time before shutting off the engine. Slide 34: INTAKE SYSTEM 4. INTERCOOLER - When the atmospheric air is compressed by the compressor in the turbocharger, the temperature of the air increases. The temperature of the air needs to be reduced before it enters the engine cylinder. The hot compressed air is passed through a intercooler to reduce the temperature. Intercooler is a heat exchanger where the hot compressed air flows on the inside and cool atmospheric air flows on the outside leading to cooling of the compressed air HOT COMPRESSED AIR COOL COMPRESSED AIR INTERCOOLER ATM AIR Slide 35: A.

Since the exhaust gases are at higher pressure than atmospheric pressure, the exhaust system has to reduce the pressure of exhaust gases so that there is no noise on discharge to atmosphere. Catalytic converter (if fitted) reduces harmful pollutants in the exhaust gases to un-harmful gases.

SILENCER/MUFFLER/EXPANSION CHAMBER - Silencers are separate chambers fitted on the exhaust system fitted with baffles on the inside. The silencer reduces the pressure of the exhaust gases progressively and lets out the exhaust gases to atmosphere at atmospheric pressures. 2. CATALYTIC CONVERTER - Catalytic converters are emission control devices fitted on the exhaust system. Catalytic converters convert harmful exhaust gases to un-harmful gases. Catalytic converters are coated with noble metals like Platinum, Palladium, Rhodium on the inside. Catalytic converters are of 2 types, namely : A. OXIDATION CATALYST - Fitted on diesel engines. Converts CO, HC to CO2 and H20. B. THREE WAY CATALYST - Fitted on Petrol engines. Converts CO, HC & NOx to CO2 , H20 & N2. Slide 39: A.

WATER PUMP - Water pump sucks water from the radiator bottom tank and pushes the water in to the engine block/cylinder head. Water pump is driven by the engine crankshaft by a belt (in some cases it may be gear driven) 2. THERMOSTAT - Thermostat is a temperature sensitive valve fitted on the outlet of the engine. The thermostat will open only when the predetermined temperature (75-90 C) is reached. Thermostat ensures that a cold engine warms up faster and also ensures engine runs at optimum temperature for best fuel efficiency. 2.RADIATOR - Radiator is a heat exchanger. The hot coolant (water) from engine enters to the top tank of the radiator and passes through the core to the bottom tank of the radiator. Cool atmospheric air is drawn over the core by the cooling fan, leading to cooling of the radiator water. Radiators can be of : Down Flow type - Water passes from top tank to bottom tank in a downward direction. Cross Flow type - Water passes from left to right across the radiator. Radiators can be made of Copper or Aluminum Slide 45: COOLING SYSTEM 4. RADIATOR PRESSURE CAP - Water normally starts boiling at 100 deg C. In order to increase the boiling temperature of water, the cooling system is pressurized. The Radiator pressure cap is set at 0.9 Bar so that the cooling system operates under a pressure of 1.9 Bar. When the pressure exceeds 1.9 Bar, the pressure valve opens and lets out the excessive pressure along with some coolant. When the engine cools down , the vacuum valve opens and let in air so that the radiator does not collapse inwards due to vacuum. 5. COOLING FAN - Cooling fan sucks in fresh cool air through the radiator, thus cooling the hot water. Cooling fan can be of 3 types based on how it is driven & controlled. MECHANICAL FAN - Is driven by the engine crankshaft by a belt. Cooling fan speed is dependent on engine speed. VISCOUS FAN - Is driven by the engine by a belt. However, the speed of the fan is controlled by a viscous clutch based on the radiator temperature. ELECTRIC FAN - Is driven by an electric motor. The motor is controlled by a controller based on various parameters like engine temperature, engine speed, A/c operation etc. Slide 46: COOLING SYSTEM 6. OIL COOLER - Oil cooler is a heat exchanger which uses coolant to cool the engine oil. The hot engine oil is passed through the inside of the oil cooler and a relatively cool coolant flows on the outside. OIL COOLER ENGINE COOLANT HOT ENGINE OIL COOLER ENGINE OIL Slide 47: A.

Clutch actuation mechanism can be classified as : 1. Mechanical Clutch - Where the driver’s foot effort is transmitted to the clutch through a set of levers and links 2. Cable Clutch - Where the driver’s foot effort is transmitted to the clutch through a cable. 3. Hydraulic Clutch - Where the driver’s foot effort is transferred to a hydraulic oil medium, which in turn operates the clutch through master cylinder & slave cylinder. Pedal efforts are lower & doesnot require clutch pedal free play adjustments.

CLUTCH DRIVEN PLATE - Clutch pressure plate is the link between the engine & gear box transmitting power & torque to the driveline. In engaged condition, the clutch plate is sandwiched between the engine flywheel & the Clutch pressure plate. 2. CLUTCH PRESSURE PLATE - Clutch pressure plate ensures that the clutch plate is clamped tightly to the flywheel in engaged condition and releases the clutch plate from flywheel in dis-engaged condition. The drivers’ foot effort is transmitted to the clutch pressure plate through the actuation mechanism and the releaser bearing. 3. RELEASER BEARING 4. CLUTCH FORK Slide 59: A.

COMFORT SYSTEM HVAC/AC/HEATER SYSTEM SEATING/UPHOLSTRY/FACIA/INSTRUMENTS AUDIO/VIDEO/GPS SYSTEMS IN AN AUTOMOBILE Slide 60: GEAR BOX (TRANSMISSION) GEAR BOX MODIFIES & TRANSMITS THE TORQUE OF THE ENGINE TO THE DRIVE LINE. THE AMOUNT OF MODIFICATION OF TORQUE REQUIRED IS DECIDED BY THE DRIVER AND IS ACTUATED BY A GEAR LEVER WHICH SELECTS A REQUIRED GEAR RATIO. COMPONENTS OF GEAR BOX GEAR BOX GEAR SELECTION LEVER Slide 61: GEAR BOX (TRANSMISSION) GEAR BOXES ARE CLASSIFIED AS : STEPPED TRANSMISSION STEPLESS TRANSMISSION (USED MOSTLY IN 2 WHEELERS) STEPPED TRANSMISSION ARE GEAR BOXES WHICH HAS DEFINED STEPS OR GEAR RATIOS. THE NUMBER OF STEPS CAN BE 3 , 4 OR 5. STEPPED TRANSMISSIONS CAN BE FURTHER CLASSIFIED AS MANUAL TRANSMISSION WHERE THE REQUIRED STEP OR GEAR IS SELECTED BY THE DRIVER, AS PER THE DRIVING REQUIREMENT AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION WHERE THE STEP OR GEAR RATIO IS AUTOMATICALLY SELECTED, AS DECIDED BY A ECU BASED ON INFORMATION FROM VARIOUS SENSORS Slide 62: GEAR BOX (MANUAL TRANSMISSION) FROM CLUTCH TO PROP SHAFT FIRST GEAR SECOND GEAR THIRD GEAR FIFTH GEAR FOURTH GEAR COUNTER SHAFT MAIN SHAFT SHIFT RAILS GEAR LEVER SYNCHRONISER REVERSE GEAR NOT SHOWN Slide 63: GEAR BOX GEAR RATIO - Gear ratios are gear reduction steps in the gear box. A gear reduction multiplies the engine torque by the gear ratio amount. Torque requirement at the wheel depends operating conditions. For example : To move a vehicle from standstill requires much more torque than the peak torque of the engine. Hence the torque is multiplied by the first gear ratio. Once the vehicle is started and moved using first gear, it requires less torque at the wheels to keep it moving. Hence it requires no multiplication or very less multiplication. If the vehicle suddenly encounters a gradient , it will require more torque at the wheels to keep the vehicle moving. Hence a intermediate ratio is required. Slide 64: GEAR BOX GEAR CHANGE MECHANISM(EXTERNAL) - A desired gear ratio can be selected by the driver by selecting and shifting the gear lever 1 2 3 R 4 5 1 2 R 4 5 SPEED TRANSMISSION BA10 NISSAN ISUZU 4 SPEED TRANSMISSION KMT 90 MS 90 GEAR SELECTION GEAR SHIFTING 3 Slide 65: GEAR BOX GEAR CHANGE MECHANISM(INTERNAL) - The desired gear ratio selected by the driver is transmitted through the gear lever, set of shift rails to the gears located inside the gear box. The gear shifting mechanism inside the gear box can be broadly classified as : SLIDING MESH - In which , the gears needs to be moved physically in to mesh with the corresponding gear. This requires that the vehicle is stationary when the gears are shifted, Hence sliding mesh is obsolete and is used only in First Gear or Reverse gear. CONSTANT MESH - In which, all the gears are in constant mesh and the required gear engagement is achieved by operating a synchroniser mechanism. Synchronisation mechanism can be classified as : Manual Synchronisation - Double de-clutching Automatic Synchronisation - Single stroke shifting Slide 66: GEAR BOX SYNCHRONISER MECHANISM - In order to avoid gears crashing, when shifting from one gear ratio to another, it is required to match the speeds of both the drive & the driven gears, before the shifting can happen. Synchroniser mechanism does the job of synchronising the speeds of the drive & driven gear so that shifting takes place smoothly. All forward gears (except First) need to have synchronisers Synchroniser mechanism are of different designs : Strut type Pin Type Slide 67: A.

CROWN WHEEL/PINION - Also known as rear axle ratio, is fixed gear reduction at the rear axle. Crown wheel/pinion receives the torque from gear box (through propeller shaft) , multiplies the torque and directs it to both wheels in a perpendicular direction, through the differential. Crown & Pinion pair is known as Hypoid pair. 2. DIFFERENTIAL MECHANISM - Equalises the torque between both wheels. Allows both wheels to rotate at different speeds to avoid tyre slippage during cornering. Due to the feature of “torque equalisation” , if one tyre is stuck in soft ground.mud, the other tyre will not rotate. 3. AXLE SHAFTS - Carries the torque from the differential to the wheels.

SPRINGS - Springs are mounted at each wheel and they absorb the road shocks created when the vehicle travels over potholes or speed breakers. Springs are of various types, namely : Leaf springs - Leaf springs are multi-layered steel plates clamped together. Coil springs - Coil springs are made of thick steel wires wound in a spring form Torsion bar - Torsion bar are long steel rods of either circular or square cross section. The springing action is generated by the torsional forces when the torsion bar is twisted Slide 95: SUSPENSION 2. SHOCK ABSORBERS - The springs absorb road shocks. While absorbing the shock , the spring is compressed. However, due to the characteristic of springs, the absorbed shock will be released immediately with the rebound of the spring. Hence , the vehicle will start oscillating after encountering a road irregularity. The purpose of the shock absorber is to absorb the shocks when the spring starts oscillating, thus providing a smooth ride. Shock absorbers are of Hydraulic , double acting type or Gas filled BUMP/REBOUND REBOUND VALVE BUMP VALVE HYDRAULIC OIL Slide 96: SUSPENSION 3. STABILIZER BAR - Stabilizer bars are fitted on the axles to reduce the amount of body roll, when the vehicle is cornered. Stabilizers bar acts as torsion bars and twist , restricting the excessive body roll. Slide 97: SUSPENSION TYPES OF SUSPENSIONS SUSPENSION TYPES CAN BE BROADLY CLASSIFIED AS : RIGID SUSPENSION - In rigid suspension both the wheels in an axle are connected by a rigid beam or a tube. Road irregularities encountered by one wheel is partially passed on to the other wheel TYRE SPRING AXLE Slide 98: SUSPENSION TYPES OF SUSPENSIONS INDEPENDENT SUSPENSION - In independent suspension, each wheel is mounted separately. Road irregularities encountered by one wheel is absorbed by that wheel only. IFS - Independent Front Suspension IRS - Independent Rear Suspension Slide 99: A.

STEERING SYSTEMS CAN BE : MANUAL STEERING POWER ASSISTED STEERING COMPONENTS OF STEERING SYSTEM STEERING GEAR BOX STEERING WHEEL STEERING INNER/OUTER COLUMNS TIE RODS POWER STEERING PUMP POWER STEERING RESERVOIR POWER STEERING HOSES/PIPES Slide 101: STEERING MANUAL STEERING - In which, the driver’s muscular energy is directly used in steering the wheels of the vehicle. POWER ASSISTED STEERING - In which, the driver is aided by an external power assistance, so that the efforts required at the steering wheel is lower. In case of failure of the source of power, the steering system reverts to manual steering. Power source for the steering can be : 1. Hydraulic power - Hydraulic pressure generated by a power steering pump, driven by the engine. 2. Electric power - An electric motor driven by the vehicle electrical system and controlled by a an ECU. Also known as Electronic Power Steering (EPS) Slide 102: STEERING STEERING WHEEL STEERING INTERMEDIATE COLUMN STEERING COLUMN STEERING GEAR BOX TIE ROD ENGINE RESERVOIR POWER STEERING PUMP STEERING GEAR BOX POWER ASSISTED STEERING (HYDRAULIC) MANUAL STEERING Slide 103: STEERING 1. STEERING GEAR BOX - Steering gear box converts driver’s effort at steering wheel (Rotary) to a linear movement at tie rods. The tie rods are connected to the wheels which turn either left or right. Various types of steering gear box designs are available. The various designs are based on the type of gear reduction used inside the steering gear box Worm & roller Re-circulating Ball type (RCBT) Rack & pinion type Steering gear can be either Manual or Power assisted Slide 104: STEERING 2. STEERING WHEEL - Transmits the driver’s hand effort to the steering gear box. 3. STEERING COLUMNS - Link between the steering wheel and the steering gear box. 4. TIE-RODS - The connection between the steering gear box and the wheels. 5 .POWER STEERING RESERVOIR - Holds the hydraulic steering fluid and supplies the same to Steering pump , as and when required. Slide 105: STEERING 6. POWER STEERING PUMP - Driven by engine. Generates hydraulic pressure and directs it to the steering gear box. Since the power steering pump is driven by the engine, the pump speed increases as the engine speed increases. Increase in the engine speed generates more pressure of the power steering fluid. Due to higher steering fluid pressures, the amount of assistance also increases at higher engine/vehicle speeds. This is not desirable as the steering becomes softer and softer as the vehicle speed increases, leading to difficulty in controlling the vehicle. SPEED SENSITIVE POWER STEERING - In which a special valve reduces the steering fluid pressure as the engine speed increases. This is known as speed sensitive power steering. Slide 106: A.

TANDEM MASTER CYLINDER - Converts driver’s foot effort to hydraulic pressure and transmits the pressure to wheel cylinders. The tandem master cylinder has 2 compartments for safety . Each compartment is connected separately and independently to either front or rear wheel brakes. Failure of one circuit (leakage) will lead to brake failure in that particular axle. The vehicle can be brought to stop with the working brakes in the other axle, with higher pedal effort. Slide 112: BRAKES 2. WHEEL BRAKES - Wheel brakes are fitted on each wheel.Wheel brakes can be classified as Drum brakes & Disc brakes DRUM BRAKES - Where a set of brake liners expand against a brake drum leading to braking of the vehicle.The brake liners are operated by a wheel cylinder which receives hydraulic pressure form the tandem master cylinder. Drum brakes are normally fitted on Front & Rear brakes Drum brakes can be further classified as : Simplex(HNSS) - Hydraulic Normal Shoe Sliding - Fitted at Rear/Front Duplex (HLSS) - Hydraulic Leading Shoe Sliding - Fitted at Front Duo-Duplex - Slide 113: BRAKES BRAKE DRUM BRAKE LINER WHEEL CYLINDER BRAKE FLUID FROM MASTER CYLINDER SIMPLEX BRAKE FLUID FROM MASTER CYLINDER BRAKE FLUID FROM MASTER CYLINDER DUPLEX DRUM BRAKES Slide 114: BRAKES DRUM BRAKES DUO- DUPLEX BRAKE FLUID FROM MASTER CYLINDER BRAKE FLUID FROM MASTER CYLINDER BRAKE LINER WHEEL CYLINDER BRAKE DRUM Slide 115: BRAKES DISC BRAKES - Where a set of brake pads expand against a brake disc leading to braking of the vehicle.The brake liners are operated by a wheel cylinder which receives hydraulic pressure form the tandem master cylinder. Disc brakes are normally fitted on Front brakes Disc brakes can be further classified as : Fixed Caliper - Where there are separate wheel cylinders each for inner & outer brake pad. (used in earth moving equipment) Floating Caliper - Where there is only inner pad is moved by the wheel cylinder , the outer pad is moved by the caliper. Floating caliper brakes can be further classified as : Single pot - Where one wheel cylinder operates the inner pad Twin pot - Where two wheel cylinders operates the inner pad Slide 116: BRAKES DISC BRAKES - FLOATING CALIPER - SINGLE POT BRAKE FLUID FROM MASTER CYLINDER BRAKE DISC WHEEL CYLINDER BRAKE CALIPER (MOVING) BRAKE PADS Slide 117: BRAKES DISC BRAKES - FLOATING CALIPER - TWIN POT BRAKE FLUID FROM MASTER CYLINDER BRAKE DISC WHEEL CYLINDERS BRAKE CALIPER (MOVING) BRAKE PADS Slide 118: BRAKES DISC BRAKES - FIXED CALIPER BRAKE FLUID FROM MASTER CYLINDER BRAKE DISC WHEEL CYLINDER BRAKE CALIPER (FIXED) BRAKE PADS BRAKE FLUID FROM MASTER CYLINDER Slide 119: BRAKES 3. BRAKE BOOSTER - Also known as Brake Servo. Brake booster is fitted between the brake pedal and the tandem master cylinder. Brake booster supplies additional effort to the tandem master cylinder as soon as the brake pedal is pressed by the driver. The additional effort is derived from the vacuum generated by the vacuum pump. Brake pedal efforts are lower when equipped with brake booster. Brake boosters are specified by the diameter of the diaphragm - 9” or 10” In case of failure of the brake booster or loss of vacuum, the braking system reverts to manual system. More effort will be required to stop the vehicle. TANDEM BOOSTER - Tandem boosters are 2 boosters of different sizes sandwiched in to one housing.

PRESSURE CONTROL VALVES - Pressure control valves modify the brake fluid pressure to the rear braking circuit, under certain conditions to avoid rear wheel locking. When a vehicle is braked at high speeds, weight transfer happens. The vehicle weight shifts to the front axle. There will be relatively very less weight in the rear axles. The brake fluid pressure is same for both front & rear axles. This will lead to “Rear Wheel Lock” condition. A locked rear wheel will lead to vehicle instability and skidding/Tail swing. Pressure control valves reduce the brake fluid pressure to the rear circuit , under these conditions. Pressure control valves are classified as : PCRV - Pressure Conscious Regulating Valve DCRV - Deceleration Conscious Regulating Valve LCRV - Load Conscious Regulating Valve Slide 123: BRAKES G-VALVE - G-valve is a deceleration conscious pressure regulating valve, fitted on the rear brake circuit. When the vehicle is braked hard, the g-level of the deceleration is sensed by a steel ball , which rolls forward and partially blocks the brake fluid to the rear brakes. TYRE BRAKE TYRE BRAKE TYRE BRAKE TYRE BRAKE G-Valves are fitted at a specified angle in direction of vehicle motion G-VALVE Slide 124: BRAKES LCRV (Load Conscious Regulating Valve) - Also known as LSPV (Load Sensitive Pressure Valve). LCRV detects the load on the vehicle and accordingly regulates the brake fluid pressure to the rear brakes. Load (fully laden or unladen) is detected by height difference between the rear axle and the body , using levers or springs. BODY UNLADEN LCRV/LSPV SPRING BODY LADEN Slide 125: BRAKES 5. VACUUM PUMP - Vacuum pump generates vacuum for the brake booster. Vacuum pumps are mounted on the rear side of the alternator and are generally driven by the engine by a belt. Failure of the belt will lead to vacuum pump stopping functioning leading to loss of vacuum to the booster and hard brakes. 6. BRAKE FLUID RESERVOIR - Stores brake fluid and supplies to tandem master cylinder. Brake fluid reservoir has 2 separate compartments for front circuit and rear circuit.

AIR FILTER - The purpose of the air filter is to clean the atmospheric air of dirt & dust before entering the engine cylinder. Air filters needs to cleaned regularly and replaced at recommended intervals. 2. CLOGGING INDICATOR - Clogging indicator indicates the condition of the air filter as to whether is clean or choked. A visible RED band in the indicator indicates choked air filter Slide 33: INTAKE SYSTEM 3. TURBOCHARGER - The turbo charger utilizes the wasted heat energy in the exhaust system, to run a compressor which compresses the intake air. Compressed intake air has more density and hence more fuel can be injected increasing the power of the engine. Turbo charging is an ideal way to increase the engine power without increasing the engine size. For trouble free performance of turbocharger a clean air filter element is a must. A turbo charger spins at very high speed (~ 1.6 Lakh RPM). The turbo charger is lubricated by engine oil. If the engine is switched off abruptly , the oil supply to turbo bearing stops instantly. Since the turbine is running at very high speeds, it takes some time to wind down. During this time the turbine bearing can be starved off oil. Hence it is recommended to idle the engine for some time before shutting off the engine. Slide 34: INTAKE SYSTEM 4. INTERCOOLER - When the atmospheric air is compressed by the compressor in the turbocharger, the temperature of the air increases. The temperature of the air needs to be reduced before it enters the engine cylinder. The hot compressed air is passed through a intercooler to reduce the temperature. Intercooler is a heat exchanger where the hot compressed air flows on the inside and cool atmospheric air flows on the outside leading to cooling of the compressed air HOT COMPRESSED AIR COOL COMPRESSED AIR INTERCOOLER ATM AIR Slide 35: A.

WATER PUMP - Water pump sucks water from the radiator bottom tank and pushes the water in to the engine block/cylinder head. Water pump is driven by the engine crankshaft by a belt (in some cases it may be gear driven) 2. THERMOSTAT - Thermostat is a temperature sensitive valve fitted on the outlet of the engine. The thermostat will open only when the predetermined temperature (75-90 C) is reached. Thermostat ensures that a cold engine warms up faster and also ensures engine runs at optimum temperature for best fuel efficiency. 2.RADIATOR - Radiator is a heat exchanger. The hot coolant (water) from engine enters to the top tank of the radiator and passes through the core to the bottom tank of the radiator. Cool atmospheric air is drawn over the core by the cooling fan, leading to cooling of the radiator water. Radiators can be of : Down Flow type - Water passes from top tank to bottom tank in a downward direction. Cross Flow type - Water passes from left to right across the radiator. Radiators can be made of Copper or Aluminum Slide 45: COOLING SYSTEM 4. RADIATOR PRESSURE CAP - Water normally starts boiling at 100 deg C. In order to increase the boiling temperature of water, the cooling system is pressurized. The Radiator pressure cap is set at 0.9 Bar so that the cooling system operates under a pressure of 1.9 Bar. When the pressure exceeds 1.9 Bar, the pressure valve opens and lets out the excessive pressure along with some coolant. When the engine cools down , the vacuum valve opens and let in air so that the radiator does not collapse inwards due to vacuum. 5. COOLING FAN - Cooling fan sucks in fresh cool air through the radiator, thus cooling the hot water. Cooling fan can be of 3 types based on how it is driven & controlled. MECHANICAL FAN - Is driven by the engine crankshaft by a belt. Cooling fan speed is dependent on engine speed. VISCOUS FAN - Is driven by the engine by a belt. However, the speed of the fan is controlled by a viscous clutch based on the radiator temperature. ELECTRIC FAN - Is driven by an electric motor. The motor is controlled by a controller based on various parameters like engine temperature, engine speed, A/c operation etc. Slide 46: COOLING SYSTEM 6. OIL COOLER - Oil cooler is a heat exchanger which uses coolant to cool the engine oil. The hot engine oil is passed through the inside of the oil cooler and a relatively cool coolant flows on the outside. OIL COOLER ENGINE COOLANT HOT ENGINE OIL COOLER ENGINE OIL Slide 47: A.

A gear reduction multiplies the engine torque by the gear ratio amount. Torque requirement at the wheel depends operating conditions. For example : To move a vehicle from standstill requires much more torque than the peak torque of the engine. Hence the torque is multiplied by the first gear ratio. Once the vehicle is started and moved using first gear, it requires less torque at the wheels to keep it moving. Hence it requires no multiplication or very less multiplication. If the vehicle suddenly encounters a gradient , it will require more torque at the wheels to keep the vehicle moving. Hence a intermediate ratio is required. Slide 64: GEAR BOX GEAR CHANGE MECHANISM(EXTERNAL) - A desired gear ratio can be selected by the driver by selecting and shifting the gear lever 1 2 3 R 4 5 1 2 R 4 5 SPEED TRANSMISSION BA10 NISSAN ISUZU 4 SPEED TRANSMISSION KMT 90 MS 90 GEAR SELECTION GEAR SHIFTING 3 Slide 65: GEAR BOX GEAR CHANGE MECHANISM(INTERNAL) - The desired gear ratio selected by the driver is transmitted through the gear lever, set of shift rails to the gears located inside the gear box. The gear shifting mechanism inside the gear box can be broadly classified as : SLIDING MESH - In which , the gears needs to be moved physically in to mesh with the corresponding gear. This requires that the vehicle is stationary when the gears are shifted, Hence sliding mesh is obsolete and is used only in First Gear or Reverse gear. CONSTANT MESH - In which, all the gears are in constant mesh and the required gear engagement is achieved by operating a synchroniser mechanism. Synchronisation mechanism can be classified as : Manual Synchronisation - Double de-clutching Automatic Synchronisation - Single stroke shifting Slide 66: GEAR BOX SYNCHRONISER MECHANISM - In order to avoid gears crashing, when shifting from one gear ratio to another, it is required to match the speeds of both the drive & the driven gears, before the shifting can happen. Synchroniser mechanism does the job of synchronising the speeds of the drive & driven gear so that shifting takes place smoothly. All forward gears (except First) need to have synchronisers Synchroniser mechanism are of different designs : Strut type Pin Type Slide 67: A.

SPRINGS - Springs are mounted at each wheel and they absorb the road shocks created when the vehicle travels over potholes or speed breakers. Springs are of various types, namely : Leaf springs - Leaf springs are multi-layered steel plates clamped together. Coil springs - Coil springs are made of thick steel wires wound in a spring form Torsion bar - Torsion bar are long steel rods of either circular or square cross section. The springing action is generated by the torsional forces when the torsion bar is twisted Slide 95: SUSPENSION 2. SHOCK ABSORBERS - The springs absorb road shocks. While absorbing the shock , the spring is compressed. However, due to the characteristic of springs, the absorbed shock will be released immediately with the rebound of the spring. Hence , the vehicle will start oscillating after encountering a road irregularity. The purpose of the shock absorber is to absorb the shocks when the spring starts oscillating, thus providing a smooth ride. Shock absorbers are of Hydraulic , double acting type or Gas filled BUMP/REBOUND REBOUND VALVE BUMP VALVE HYDRAULIC OIL Slide 96: SUSPENSION 3.

Slide 105: STEERING 6. POWER STEERING PUMP - Driven by engine. Generates hydraulic pressure and directs it to the steering gear box. Since the power steering pump is driven by the engine, the pump speed increases as the engine speed increases. Increase in the engine speed generates more pressure of the power steering fluid. Due to higher steering fluid pressures, the amount of assistance also increases at higher engine/vehicle speeds. This is not desirable as the steering becomes softer and softer as the vehicle speed increases, leading to difficulty in controlling the vehicle. SPEED SENSITIVE POWER STEERING - In which a special valve reduces the steering fluid pressure as the engine speed increases. This is known as speed sensitive power steering. Slide 106: A.

Drum brakes are normally fitted on Front & Rear brakes Drum brakes can be further classified as : Simplex(HNSS) - Hydraulic Normal Shoe Sliding - Fitted at Rear/Front Duplex (HLSS) - Hydraulic Leading Shoe Sliding - Fitted at Front Duo-Duplex - Slide 113: BRAKES BRAKE DRUM BRAKE LINER WHEEL CYLINDER BRAKE FLUID FROM MASTER CYLINDER SIMPLEX BRAKE FLUID FROM MASTER CYLINDER BRAKE FLUID FROM MASTER CYLINDER DUPLEX DRUM BRAKES Slide 114: BRAKES DRUM BRAKES DUO- DUPLEX BRAKE FLUID FROM MASTER CYLINDER BRAKE FLUID FROM MASTER CYLINDER BRAKE LINER WHEEL CYLINDER BRAKE DRUM Slide 115: BRAKES DISC BRAKES - Where a set of brake pads expand against a brake disc leading to braking of the vehicle.The brake liners are operated by a wheel cylinder which receives hydraulic pressure form the tandem master cylinder. Disc brakes are normally fitted on Front brakes Disc brakes can be further classified as : Fixed Caliper - Where there are separate wheel cylinders each for inner & outer brake pad. (used in earth moving equipment) Floating Caliper - Where there is only inner pad is moved by the wheel cylinder , the outer pad is moved by the caliper. Floating caliper brakes can be further classified as : Single pot - Where one wheel cylinder operates the inner pad Twin pot - Where two wheel cylinders operates the inner pad Slide 116: BRAKES DISC BRAKES - FLOATING CALIPER - SINGLE POT BRAKE FLUID FROM MASTER CYLINDER BRAKE DISC WHEEL CYLINDER BRAKE CALIPER (MOVING) BRAKE PADS Slide 117: BRAKES DISC BRAKES - FLOATING CALIPER - TWIN POT BRAKE FLUID FROM MASTER CYLINDER BRAKE DISC WHEEL CYLINDERS BRAKE CALIPER (MOVING) BRAKE PADS Slide 118: BRAKES DISC BRAKES - FIXED CALIPER BRAKE FLUID FROM MASTER CYLINDER BRAKE DISC WHEEL CYLINDER BRAKE CALIPER (FIXED) BRAKE PADS BRAKE FLUID FROM MASTER CYLINDER Slide 119: BRAKES 3. BRAKE BOOSTER - Also known as Brake Servo. Brake booster is fitted between the brake pedal and the tandem master cylinder. Brake booster supplies additional effort to the tandem master cylinder as soon as the brake pedal is pressed by the driver. The additional effort is derived from the vacuum generated by the vacuum pump. Brake pedal efforts are lower when equipped with brake booster. Brake boosters are specified by the diameter of the diaphragm - 9” or 10” In case of failure of the brake booster or loss of vacuum, the braking system reverts to manual system. More effort will be required to stop the vehicle. TANDEM BOOSTER - Tandem boosters are 2 boosters of different sizes sandwiched in to one housing.

PRESSURE CONTROL VALVES - Pressure control valves modify the brake fluid pressure to the rear braking circuit, under certain conditions to avoid rear wheel locking. When a vehicle is braked at high speeds, weight transfer happens. The vehicle weight shifts to the front axle. There will be relatively very less weight in the rear axles. The brake fluid pressure is same for both front & rear axles. This will lead to “Rear Wheel Lock” condition. A locked rear wheel will lead to vehicle instability and skidding/Tail swing. Pressure control valves reduce the brake fluid pressure to the rear circuit , under these conditions. Pressure control valves are classified as : PCRV - Pressure Conscious Regulating Valve DCRV - Deceleration Conscious Regulating Valve LCRV - Load Conscious Regulating Valve Slide 123: BRAKES G-VALVE - G-valve is a deceleration conscious pressure regulating valve, fitted on the rear brake circuit. When the vehicle is braked hard, the g-level of the deceleration is sensed by a steel ball , which rolls forward and partially blocks the brake fluid to the rear brakes. TYRE BRAKE TYRE BRAKE TYRE BRAKE TYRE BRAKE G-Valves are fitted at a specified angle in direction of vehicle motion G-VALVE Slide 124: BRAKES LCRV (Load Conscious Regulating Valve) - Also known as LSPV (Load Sensitive Pressure Valve). LCRV detects the load on the vehicle and accordingly regulates the brake fluid pressure to the rear brakes. Load (fully laden or unladen) is detected by height difference between the rear axle and the body , using levers or springs. BODY UNLADEN LCRV/LSPV SPRING BODY LADEN Slide 125: BRAKES 5. VACUUM PUMP - Vacuum pump generates vacuum for the brake booster. Vacuum pumps are mounted on the rear side of the alternator and are generally driven by the engine by a belt. Failure of the belt will lead to vacuum pump stopping functioning leading to loss of vacuum to the booster and hard brakes. 6. BRAKE FLUID RESERVOIR - Stores brake fluid and supplies to tandem master cylinder. Brake fluid reservoir has 2 separate compartments for front circuit and rear circuit.
