Components of

Air Powered

Vehicle

Engine

Uses expansion of compressed air instead of

Storage Tank

Storage Tank

Air is non-flammable on its

own

No worry of

crash

Compressed air produces more dense air rather than air heated prior to expansion inside the engine

Emission

Compressed air vehicles uses electricity

as a source of energy

Working

Process

The needed power driven through an

epicyclic automatic transmission

The needed power provided By 82hp

1.2ltr engine

Deceleration Acceleration

Driving Modes

Air Only

Combined

Gas only

Gas only drive mode : Suitable for highway

driving

Air Only Drive : Useful for city stop and go traffic

where the speed is below 43mph

Combined driving mode : Powered

by gas engine and hydraulic motor .

No longer needed expensive batteries

Let’s know the Feasibility and roadblocks of Air Powered Vehicle

Feasibilities :

Refueling can be done at home with some needed

equipment

Reduces the cost of vehicle production

Self-discharge proportion is low from other vehicle types

No requirement of A/C : The compressed air’s low temperature

works as A/C

Reduction in hazardous chemicals to environment like battery acids or

gasoline particles

Regenerate lost energy from braking

Mechanical components compress the air inside the

car

Compressed air uses heat exchanger if the heat exchanger fails then air can be

iced up inside the engine

Other

loopholes

Incomplete dehydrated air also lead to decrease in

pressure ultimate to decrease in energy

level.

Incomplete dehydration of compressed air lead to inner

icing
