Imboni yezimoto ishintsha njalo, ikakhulukazi uma kukhulunywa ngemithombo yamandla ehlukile yezimoto. Enye indawo yokusungula izinto ezintsha eye yathola ukunakwa okukhulu eminyakeni yamuva ukusetshenziswa kwamaphampu amanzi kagesi ezimotweni zikagesi ezihlanganisiwe (ama-HEV) ukuthuthukisa izinhlelo zazo zokupholisa. Le ntuthuko ithathe elinye igxathu phambili ngokuthuthukiswa kwe-iphampu yamanzi kagesi yezimotoyakhelwe ngqo amabhasi.
Ngaphambilini, amaphampu amanzi kagesi ayesetshenziswa kakhulu ezimotweni zenjini ezisebenzisa amandla kagesi ukuze kuthuthukiswe ukusebenza kahle kwenjini futhi kuncishiswe ukusetshenziswa kukaphethiloli. Kodwa-ke, njengoba izimoto ezihlanganisiwe zaqala ukuthandwa ngenxa yokusebenza kahle kukaphethiloli okuthuthukisiwe kanye nokukhishwa kwazo okuphansi, indima yazo yanda. Lezi zimoto zithembele ekuhlanganisweni kwama-motor asebenzisa amandla kagesi kanye nama-motor kagesi, okuholela ezidingweni zokupholisa eziyinkimbinkimbi kakhulu.
Okusanda kwethulwaiphampu yamanzi kagesi yezimotokuyintuthuko enkulu ezixazululweni zokupholisa izimoto ezixubile. Yenzelwe ngqo ukuhlangabezana nezidingo zamabhasi futhi ihlangabezana nezidingo zokupholisa ezihlukile zalezi zimoto ezinkulu. Amabhasi avame ukuba nezinjini ezinkulu, ezikhiqiza ukushisa okwengeziwe, okudingeka ziphathwe ngempumelelo ukuqinisekisa ukusebenza kahle kanye nokuphila isikhathi eside. Amaphampu amanzi kagesi ezimoto aklanyelwe ukufeza lokhu ngokunikeza ukupholisa okusebenzayo kanye nokulawula izinga lokushisa.
Enye yezinzuzo eziyinhloko zale phampu yamanzi kagesi yezimoto yikhono layo lokusebenza ngokuzimela ngaphandle kwenjini. Ngokungafani nephampu yamanzi yendabuko eqhutshwa ngebhande lenjini, le phampu kagesi inikwa amandla uhlelo lukagesi lwemoto. Lokhu kuqeda isidingo samabhande, kunciphisa ukulahleka kwamandla futhi kwandisa ukusebenza kahle kwenjini iyonke.
Ngaphezu kwalokho, amaphampu amanzi kagesi ezimoto ahlanganisa izilawuli zikagesi ezithuthukisiwe ezibavumela ukuthi balungise isivinini sabo kanye nokugeleza kwe-coolant ngokwezidingo zokupholisa zenjini. Lokhu kuvumela ukulawulwa kwezinga lokushisa okunembile kanye nokusebenza kahle kokupholisa, ekugcineni kuthuthukise ukusebenza kwemoto kanye nokuthembeka.
Ngaphezu kwezinzuzo zokusebenza, amaphampu amanzi kagesi ezimoto nawo asiza ekuhlinzekeni uhambo oluthule nolukhululekile. Uma kuqhathaniswa namaphampu omshini, amaphampu kagesi asebenza buthule, enciphisa umsindo nokudlidliza. Lokhu kubaluleke kakhulu emabhasini, lapho induduzo yabagibeli ibaluleke kakhulu khona.
Ngaphezu kwalokho, ukusetshenziswa kwamaphampu amanzi kagesi ezimotweni ezixubile, okuhlanganisa namabhasi, kuhambisana nemizamo eqhubekayo yomkhakha yokunciphisa ukukhishwa kwamagesi abangela ukushisa komhlaba kanye nokulwa nokushintsha kwesimo sezulu. Ngokwandisa ukusebenza kahle kokupholisa kanye nokunciphisa ukulahleka kwamandla, lawa maphampu amanzi asiza ekunciphiseni ukusetshenziswa kukaphethiloli kanye nokukhishwa kwawo. Ngakho-ke, asekela ubungane bemvelo bezimoto ezixubile, okwenza kube ukukhetha okuhle ezweni lanamuhla eliqaphela kakhulu imvelo.
Ngaphezu kwalokho, ukusetshenziswa kwamaphampu amanzi kagesi ezimoto emabhasini kubonisa ukuzibophezela kwemboni ekuthuthukisweni kobuchwepheshe kanye nezixazululo zokuhamba ezisimeme. Njengoba ezokuthutha zomphakathi zidlala indima ebalulekile ekuhambeni kwabantu emadolobheni, kubalulekile ukutshala imali emisha ukuze kuthuthukiswe ukusebenza kahle kwazo, ukuthembeka kanye nokusebenza kwemvelo. Ukufakwa kwala maphampu emabhasini kuwubufakazi balokhu kuzibophezela.
Ngamafuphi, izimotoiphampu yamanzi kagesieyenzelwe ngqo izimoto zabagibeli imelela elinye iqophelo elikhulu ekuthuthukisweni kwezinhlelo zokupholisa izimoto ezihlanganisiwe. Ikhono layo lokuhlinzeka ngokupholisa okusebenzayo, ukulawula izinga lokushisa okunembile kanye nokusebenza kahle kukaphethiloli okuthuthukisiwe kugcizelela ukubaluleka kwayo embonini yezimoto. Ngaphezu kwalokho, igalelo layo ekunciphiseni ukukhishwa kwegesi kanye nokuthuthukisa ulwazi lwabagibeli liyenza ibe yimpahla ebalulekile ekufuneni izixazululo zokuhamba ezisimeme. Ngalobu buchwepheshe obusha, amabhasi azoba athembekile kakhudlwana, abe nobungane nemvelo futhi akhululeke, kuzuze abaqhubi kanye nabagibeli.
