    I am learning about car's suspension, and there are many sites, none that I found has a good explanation, also names of the suspension are not the same from site to site. But I really don't understand movment of coil spring solid axle, because from the picture I can see say that both wheels can...

    differential

    adiabatic gas extension

    Is termodynamic equation for calculating gas temperature, when at constant mass the pressure or volume has change correct in an adiabatic process? T2=T1*(V1/V2)^k-1 T2=T1*(p2/p1)^(k-1)/k if I make some example.... Tire pressure is cca 3bar, and ISA pressure is cca 1bar and temp is 288K (15°C)...

    diesel, gasoline natural gas fuels differences

    Hi, I know something about thermodynamic, fuel physical characteristics, so please try that answers/discusion will be of any use. I tried to discuss about the topic on the other automotive forums, but people seem to know something and mostly I got cross-explanation of my former statements. I...
