Where is the air inlet of the car?

Different models have different air intakes, some in front of the engine and some behind the engine. Different cars may have different positions and shapes, but one thing is the same. Usually in the engine compartment. When the hood is open, the air cleaner is located at the air inlet.

The air filter is installed between the air inlet and the throttle and is a rectangular box with a plastic shell. Two ends of the air filter are respectively connected with the air inlet pipe, one end is connected with the air inlet, and the other end is connected with the throttle valve of the engine.

Extended data

The main functions of the automobile air intake are as follows:

1. Deliver clean, dry, sufficient and stable air to the engine to meet the needs of the engine and avoid impurities in the air and large particle dust caused by abnormal engine wear from entering the engine combustion chamber;

2. Another important function of the air intake system is to reduce noise and air intake. Noise not only affects the vehicle, but also affects the noise inside the vehicle, which has a great influence on the ride comfort;

3. The design of the intake system directly affects the power and noise quality of the engine, which is related to the ride comfort of the whole vehicle. Reasonable design of muffler components can reduce subsystem noise and improve NVH performance of vehicles.
