Good afternoon bosses
Please I'm In dire need of a favour, Pls assist one of your brothers who Is working and building towards his future.
I can drive, most especially automatic but I'm not perfect yet. So pls I need someone who Is sometimes less busy on weekend so I can come over and we will move around together. I will be responsible for fueling. I'm a legit and friendly person, I've transacted with some nairalanders on here. I reside around abule-egba. I hope someone will assist me out. My WhatsApp/Call digits Is on my signature. Thank you......

For those arguing about fuel consumption with AC and increase in fan speed, I hope this helps to put the argument to rest.

Does the increase in fan speed of a car's AC decrease its fuel efficiency? Why or why not?

Answered 5 years ago

If you mean to ask if higher fan speed with the AC will reduce your MPG, it certainly will! The AC in your car (aside from electric AC systems found in hybrid and electric cars) works differently from the electric systems in buildings and houses. Automotive AC systems use a compressor driven by the engine through an electromagnetic clutch. This allows the compressor to be disengaged when not in use. When you use the AC, the air is cooled by passing over the evaporator which is cooled by the work done by the compressor. The evaporator gets cooled to about 34°F but not much lower to prevent ice accumulating. When the evaporator reaches that temperature, the compressor is disconnected by the clutch. As air continues to flow over the evaporator, the evaporator takes the heat from the air and its temperature increases. When the evaporator reaches about 42°, the compressor clutch is engaged and the evaporator is cooled back to 34°.

Increasing the airflow over the evaporator causes it cool down more slowly with the compressor engaged and heat up more quickly with the compressor disengaged. This results in the compressor running for more time, which takes more power from the engine and results in fewer MPG than when the airflow over the evaporator is lower.

It takes work to cool air. The work is ultimately done by the engine. More work is required to cool more air. Electric AC systems are governed by the same rules.

Finally, so I hope this put the matter to a lasting rest.

Gentlelife50:

So the answer is increasing AC doesn't necessarily translate to more fuel consumption, abi!

What gives load to the engine is the compressor, like I said whenever it picks.

Guys pls is it compulsory for one to have the following before one will be accepted to the Uber or bolt platform as a new driver

1.Hackney permit
2. Driver badge
3. Vehicle body tag

Thanks for the prompt response......

Good evening Guys... I'm fortune a bolt driver in Asaba, I was attack and robbed on Feb 6, I shot 3x at the spot, and I was lucky enough to survived it and that none of the bullet hit my bone, which the went away with my Car, Phone and the rest of my valued documents, I have already send robbery report to bolt by Mail, which I was called on phone to narrates how it happened and I did, I was instructed to make a valued claimed report of my Stolen items, and to send they hospital bills to then, for refund or compensation... I'm only drop this news here to know, if you guys have witness or experience any positive testimony from bolt compensate there drivers on Robbery victims..

Whaooo. So sorry for your ordeal and than the Almighty for keeping you to narrate this story.
Since you have acted as advised, then you wait and see the outcome fron bolt.
I wish you speedy recovery.

Everything you use in the car that is powered by the car consumes fuel in the end, it may be so little that you won't notice but it doesn't mean it doesn't cost extra fuel. From your headlamps to your wiper down to rolling up and down the windows. Even your car stereo or that extra baggage in the booth.
The electrical parts draw power from the alternator which in turn draws power from the engine.

Yes it does. If you have used a tiger generator (I pass my neighbor) before you will know what I'm talking about

actually, increasing the fan doesn't give load to the engine. Reason is because fan is electrical. Meaning it's runs on the energy on the battery. But when you turn your ac on, there's a magnet that attracts the compressor plate, causing the internal components of the compressor to start pumping gas. Thereby causing the engine to do more work.
The fan is part of hvac under the dashboard. It's controlled by electric current. While Compressor magnetic force puts more load on your engine.
I hope I made sense.

common dude, all these you mentioned here can work when you engine is turned off! They are electricals. They are powered by your battery! Gosh!!!

N:b, your battery is charged by your alternator. Your alternator doesn't add any load to your engine at all. That's why your car can start even without a serpentine belt that turns the alternator.

deedee44:

Yeah you made sense. But the battery also hets that energy from somewhere.. the alternator, which draws power from the engine lol. No be my work sha so I may be wrong

deedee44:

Yes they will work, for a limited time because the car has to sources of power. The battery and the engine, to the best of my knowledge, the engine is the main source while the battery is the backup. If electrical operations are solely on the battery as you claimed, how come they still work when you remove the battery while the engine is running?
The bolded only proved the engine doesn't depend on the alternator and not the other way round which is what you intended to prove

1daboi:
@ the bolded, they work because the alternator is rolling and giving them energy. Please note that THE ALTERNATOR IS AS FREE AS Bleep! IT DOESN'T GIVE ANY STRESS TO THE ENGINE!!!!

kanuisagoat:


You see Felicity, thats why I do everything within my power to prevent those things from happening to me then I leave the rest to God.

For example, a man I carried yesterday called to say he needs to be at the airport by 6am tomorrow and wanted me to pick him up.

The only way that will be possible was if I leave my house by 4:30am so I declined and connected him with someone else who lives close to him.

I start my work on weekdays by 7:30am and close between 8 and 9pm. Those things you mentioned are less likely going to happen to any driver who works within Lagos during that time frame.

The same cannot be said for those who travel outside Lagos and those who work late into the night.

Lool if it is free as bleep. Remove your sepentine belt and ensure you drive like that all day.
