An Analysis Of Petrol - Compressed Air Powered Internal Combustion Engine: A Hybrid Engine Concept

Nowadays environment pollution becomes a much serious issue in the world. Vehicles’ exhaust product is one of the major source of environmental pollution. The engine combustion products are causing the greenhouse effect, acid rains, ozone layer depletion and some other pollution. On the other hand, many study research on fossil fuel in the previous years, observed that if the oil is consumed at this rates, 81% of the entire available resource will be consumed very soon. So now we begin to get some alternative energy to replace fossil fuel. There is some alternative sources of energy, like battery, photocells, hydrogen fuel cell, bio-diesel or compressed air can be chose. Among them, compressed air is freely available as well as free from pollution contents , and also can be compressed to higher pressures at an extremely low cost. Present work describes the compressed air technology that addresses the problems of exhaust gas pollution from automobiles, as well as utilization of fuel. The development of the compressed air powered engine model starts with modify the existing engine, cleaning of engine ,and re-assembling of the parts as per need. After that build the engine into two working stages that working with gasoline for two cylinders in the first stage and working with compressed air for rest one cylinders in the second stage. In this thesis, the research focuses on the second stage.
