Development and Scope of Air Powered Engine

Abstract

The depleting non-renewable sources of energy are a major crisis the planet is facing. Search of alternatives is more urgent than ever. The abundance and the cost effectiveness are two major motivators of using air as fuel. In compressed air powered vehicles, the process of combustion is eliminated due to the absence of hydrocarbons therefore there is no waste emission, which basically eliminates the problem of pollution which our cities are facing.

In this project we have attempted to develop a simple feasible design for using air as fuel to power our vehicles. The four stroke SI engine is replaced by two stroke engine which operates using compressed air.
