Nice Nik!!!

Gr8

You had your Feasability Test naa..


I had A Few Q??stions For you..

1) What have you done for testing its feasability?
2) Did you make any prototype model of your so said engine!
3) Did you have CAE aka analsis using any of the softwares like Pro/E or ANSYS ??

Moreover this is a public discussion board and everybody here were one's who are enusiastic to know more than what they read from books. So please don't say i DID, Do show us and let others know.

hiiiii
I am a new commer here but interested in these projects
I have once heard about this that somebody run a scooter with compressed air but i thought that this might be possibe only when the engine possesses a very high compression ratio and for this normal engines design is insufficient as stresses produced on the parts will also be very high

You r Right...
Have you gone through the video link i posted along with the Design...

Once have a look at it and then continue reading this......
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
1) I accept that higher compression ratios are required to make an engine run with compressed air....
Thats is the reason why the designer had introduced the concept of Articulated Quick Return Connecting Rod.....

This helps the Secondary Piston(Smaller) to reach its BDC lately and TDC quickly....
So here the introduction of the secondary piston helps the engine to utilize more and more compressed air energy before it exhausts.

2) Your Next Doubt is Regarding Price of the Items.

Dude, Nickle-Cadnium Alloys are being prefered for this design from my side. So by the analysis of the engine using different alloys... we may attain a suitable material for that. So no need to worry about that When Batch Production is once started.


GUYZ THINK AS HARDER AS YOU CAN...THERE ARE SEVERAL KEY POINTS NEED TO BE SORTED OUT FROM THIS DESIGN. TRY TO FIND OUT THE MISTAKES OUT FROM THIS DESIGN AND TRY TO SUGGEST A REMEDY FOR THAT IF YOU CAN. I WILL BE IN THIS DISCUSSION FOREVER FOR YOU PEOPLE.



I AM SORRY TO SAY THIS THAT I WILL BE OUT OF STATION FROM 7TH TO 11TH OF THIS MONTH FOR ATTENDING AN INTERVIEW AT PUNE FOR TATA MOTORS R&D VACENCIES. ITS MY DREAM TO GET IN TO A COMPANY LIKE TATA WHICH HAS GOST THE BEST EQUIPMENT FOR THE DESIGN AND ANALYSIS OF NEW ENGINES AND BODY PERFORMANCES BEFORE THEY WERE ON ROAD.

PLEASE PRAY FOR ME BROTHER !!!!

Hello to everyone, I am new in this forum.

I know for sure that couple of years ago (maybe some more dont remember) there was an initiative and a proposal based on a prototype from France.
The concept was about a compressed air driven vehicle quite small for city rides. If I find the link in my files I ll post it here.

There is a company located in Greece which is doing applied research and has already moved towards the compressed air concept for power production plus heating-cooling services at the residential level. The scale up should not be a problem, however, there is yet not a prototype since the cost for all parts would be around 3M euros and the local authorities are more keen in playing with lignite (so so stupid).
Anyway, for you that want to see more: google it: daedalus or Biretscor project.

Dear Thermal.....

This is a discussion Board. Not a links Archive. Please let all know the drawbacks of the model proposed for MDI. Merely searching through Google and posting the results dosen't fetch that much to anyone.

Take it Lite........
