Automotive Powertrain Science and Technology

A motor vehicleâs powertrain consists of the components which generate power and enable it to move â its engine exhaust system transmission drive shaft suspension and wheels. Any automotive engineering student going beyond basic mechanics will need a sound knowledge of the mathematics and scientific principles particularly calculus and algebra which underpin powertrain technology. This textbook supports a series of courses for instance BTEC unit 28 âœFurther Mathematics for Engineering Techniciansâ which is a requisite for a foundation degree in automotive engineering and BTEC higher unit 25 âœEngine and Vehicle Design and Performanceâ without giving full coverage of automotive technology. It is a more focused companion to the authorâs Automotive Science and Mathematics 978-0-7506-8522-1 also published by Routledge. . Language: English
