PROBLEMS WITH I.C ENGINE:- • Use of gasoline results in

pollution and damage to the environment.

• The emission of CO2 also results in Global Warming.

• The fossil fuels are present in limited quantity and are depleting at a very fast pace.

• Cost of petroleum products is increasing by leaps and bounds.

• High maintenance cost involved.

INTRODUCTION •A compressed air engine is a type of motor which does mechanical work by expanding compressed air. •A compressed air engine generally convert the compressed air energy to mechanical work through either linear or rotary motion.• Linear motion can come from either a diaphragm or piston actuator, while rotary motion is supplied by either a vane type air motor or piston air motor.

The Di Pietro motor Reciprocating compressed air enigine.

Working of a C.A.E.• It works only with two strokes that is a inkate and a

exhaust stroke. • Stroke 1• In the first stroke the intake valve will open and the

compressed air will make impact with the piston. As a result the piston will go down from the top dead center to the bottom dead center. Hence the intake stroke will also act as power stroke as well.

• Stroke 2• In the second stroke the exhaust valve is

opened and the compressed air which gave its energy to piston in the last stroke to make it move goes out as the pressure of the ambient is even lower.

Building Compressed Air Engine From Conventional

Engine.• To delete the power

stroke.• Valve timing. • Alterations in

Camshafts.• Change in intake

valve.

Page 7: compressed air vehicle

To delete the power stroke.• As the engine is

supplied with the compressed air so compression stroke will not be required

• because when the compressed air will again be compressed the power output would not be sufficient.

Change in intake valve. • Intake valve doesn’t lie exactly at the center of cylinder

head but is located at one edge of cylinder head instead, this will also cause the power loss because the more is the energy required to move the piston by pushing it not exactly from the center as compared to the amount of energy required to move the piston by pushing it from the center.

CONCLUSION.• Compressed air for vehicle propulsion is already being

explored and now air powered vehicles are being developed as a more fuel-efficient means of transportation. Some auto mobile companies are further exploring compressed air hybrids and compressed fluids to store energy for vehicles which might point the way for the development of a cost effective air powered vehicles design. Unfortunately there are still serious problems to be sorted out before air powered vehicles become a reality for common use, but there is a hope that with the development in science and technology ,well supported by the environmental conscious

• attitude and need to replace costly transportation methods, air-powered vehicles will definite see the light of the day.
