Study on Pneumatic Vehicle

This paper describes the research, design and construction of a pneumatic vehicle. The main goal is to find ways to drive efficient by using alternative energy. Compressed air as a source of energy in different uses in general and as a nonpolluting fuel in compressed air vehicles has attracted scientists and engineers for centuries. Efforts are being made by many developers and manufacturers to master the compressed air vehicle technology in all respects for its earliest use by the mankind. Compressed air filled by electricity using a compressor. The electricity requirement for compressing air has to be considered while computing overall efficiency. The air engine is currently the most generally used device to convert potential energy of compressed air into mechanical energy. Nevertheless the compressed air vehicle will contribute to reducing air pollution and tend to zero pollution level and promoting great environment. No combustion process is occurring there. Light utility vehicles are becoming very popular means of independent transportation for short distances. Cost and pollution with petrol and diesel are leading vehicle manufacturers to develop vehicles fuelled by alternative energies. Engineers are directing their efforts to make use of air as an energy source to run the light utility vehicles.
