Ok, two qs I was wondering about (completely unrelated):
How are ECUs and electronics shielded from all the heat that a car generates, especially when the car is driven in hotter climates (i.e Middle East, Africa)?
Since the catalytic converter and the exhaust pipe are at the bottom of most if not all cars obviously, does driving on the highway provide sufficient cooling to these parts due to convection from the moving air? Is it considerable cooling that engineers factor in when designing the car, its parts, and their respective operating temperatures?
Thank you.
