Air Powered Cars
[attachment=66206]
Introduction
The working of air powered cars.
Run on compressed air instead of gasoline .
Powered by a two cylinder compressed air engine.
Also called as a low pollution or zero pollution cars.
Ecofriendly
Process Description
The first piston takes in ambient air and compresses it to approximately 300 psi and 200*f in the compression chamber during the first cycle of the engine
When the piston pause, a small amount of compressed air from the tanks is released into the expansion chamber to create a low pressured, low temperature volume of about 140psi
Shortly before the valve to the exhaust cylinder is opened, a high-speed shutter connects the compression and expansion chambers. The sudden pressure and temperature difference between the low chambers creates pressure waves in the expansion chamber, thereby producing work in the exhaust chamber that drives the piston to power the engine
Working
Runs on compressed air instead of gasoline.
No pollution car.
A two cylinder, compressed air engine, powers the car.
The engine can run either on compressed air alone or act as an internal combustion engine.
Compressed air is stored in fiber or glass fiber tanks at a pressure of 4351 pounds per square inch.
The air is fed through an air injector to the engine and flows into a small chamber, which expands the air.
The air pushing down on the piston moves the crankshaft, which gives the vehicle power.
Basic Principles of Compressed Air Technology Engine
The engine has four stage pistons that are 8 compression and or expansion chambers. They have two functions
To compress ambient air
To make successive expansions thereby approaching isothermic expansion
Cryogenic Heat Engine
There are five components to the LN2000 engine
A 24-gallon stainless steel tank
A pump that moves the liquid nitrogen to the economizer
An economizer that heats the liquid nitrogen with leftover exhaust heat
A heat exchanger that boils the liquid nitrogen, creating a high pressure gas
An expander, which converts nitrogen's energy into usable power
Conclusion
Air powered cars is a realization of latest technology in automobile field.
It eliminates the use of non-renewable fuels like gasoline, diesel petrol etc, and Thereby preventing pollution caused by millions of automobiles all over the world.
This could be the future of automobiles and step to a healthier environment
