Kuyingqophamlando ebaluleke kakhulu emlandweni wobuchwepheshe osebuneminyaka engu-140 ubudala. Sikhuluma ngenjini evuthayo yangaphakathi “yekhehla”.
Ngokokuqala ngqa emlandweni, injini evuthayo yangaphakathi yeqe u-50% wokonga amandla. I-Mercedes-AMG ikwazile ukucolisa injini yayo yeFomula 1 kwaze kwaba seqophelweni lokuzuza ukusebenza kahle okungaphezu kuka-50% elabhorethri, ebhentshini lokuhlola.
Selokhu yaqala ukuvela ku-Formula 1 World Championship ngo-2014 (unyaka lapho izinjini ze-V6 1.6 Turbo zaqala khona ukusebenza ku-Formula 1), le njini ye-Mercedes-AMG ibilokhu "ihamba phambili kwezihamba phambili". Uma sicabanga ukuthi iFormula 1 iyisigaba esiphambili se-motorsport.
Kuyini ukonga kwamandla?
Kalula nje, ukusebenza kahle kwamandla enjini evuthayo yangaphakathi (MCI) kunqunywa ukuthi mangakanani amandla awusizo injini engawakhipha kuphethiloli. Ngamandla awusizo sisho ukuphuma kwamandla enjini.Ngokuvamile, ama-MCI asebenzisa kuphela u-20% wamandla avela kuphethiloli. Ezinye izinjini zikadizili zingafinyelela ku-40%.
Ngamanye amazwi, le njini yakwaMercedes-AMG ingeye-MCI yokuqala emlandweni esebenzisa amandla angaphezu kwawamoshayo. Kuyaphawuleka, akunjalo?
Kanti amandla amoshiwe ayaphi?
Amandla asele "achithiwe" ngendlela yokushisa nokungqubuzana namandla omshini. Ngakho-ke, okunye okubekwe eqhulwini kwaMercedes-AMG kube wucwaningo lokugeleza komoya/ingxube kaphethiloli endaweni evuthayo, kanye nokwelashwa kokushisa kwenjini, kunciphisa ngangokunokwenzeka ukungqubuzana kwangaphakathi kwazo zonke izingxenye.
Impela kunezinye “izangoma” ezimbalwa abakwaMercedes-AMG abangafuni ukuzidalula.
Kungenzeka yini ukuya phambili?
Kunzima kakhulu. Kunengxenye yamandla okungenakwenzeka ukuwasebenzisa. Sikhuluma ngamandla ahlakazekayo ngendlela yokushisa ngokusebenzisa i-exhaust.
Yebo, i-turbo ithatha ucezu oluyigugu lwalawo mandla, kodwa akunakwenzeka ukuwasebenzisa ngokugcwele.
