YOGYAKARTA Did you know that air temperature affects engine performance. This means that there is an ideal air temperature for car engines so that they can work optimally.

It should be noted that the car was created to be driven in various weathers. However, material resilience and engine performance still have a maximum limit to being able to work in the midst of hot and cold conditions.

Hot and cold air temperature in fact has an impact on engine performance. There are various factors behind it, one of which is the density of oxygen.

As is known, the process of burning fuel by machines requires oxygen with a certain level of density or density. Therefore, it is natural that the weather affects the efficiency of engine power.

"So the hot weather is cloudy. So the effect is on the density of oxygen, the hotter the oxygen weather, the more tenuous, not crowded," explained Odi Rachmat, owner of the Exhaust ORD as well as an engineer.

"So those who enter the fire room are also not as crowded as when the weather is cold," continued Odi.

Odi assessed that the ideal air temperature for vehicle engines to work optimally is at 25 degrees Celsius.

"It's about as rich as the temperature in Bandung if it's normal. That's at 77 degrees Fahrenheit or the equivalent of 25 degrees Celsius," he explained.

If the temperature is below that number, Odi assesses that there will be unneeded energy disposal potential.

"If it's below that number, it's also not necessarily going to improve on performance. It could even waste unnecessary energy," he said again.

Realized or not, the hot weather in the extreme category certainly has a certain impact on car vehicles.

In an article the American Automobile Association (AAA) says that vehicle engines can be difficult to turn on due to exposure to the sun. This happens because the hot temperature of the material makes fuel circulation unable to be channeled properly into the engine combustion area. However, this assumption still requires further research.

In addition, the hot temperature that markets the vehicle also has the potential to trigger other problems outside the engine. For example, car paint becomes duller, hardening on the rubber wiper, air conditioner is broken faster, lights turn yellow, battery problems, even vehicle tires have the potential to explode.

On the other hand, extreme heat also has the potential to cause components to support vehicle engines to experience problems. For example, in cables or other engine components made of rubber and plastic. When the air temperature is hot, the two raw materials have the potential to melt even though such cases rarely occur.

During hot air, vehicle owners are advised to check the engine and components regularly. Some tips that can be done are as follows.
