Abstract

Now days the world faces fuel crisis and pollution problem. Also the conventional fuels are about to end in some years. This necessitates the search for alternative fuels. Compressed air is one of the best alternative fuels which are easily available in atmosphere in abundant form. The main objective of this project is to reduce dependency of vehicle on conventional fuel. The air car is a car currently being developed which is still in the R&D stage all over the world. Compressed air is stored in storage tank with some modifications from the compressor. The running and maintenance cost for air car is less than conventional cars. This is a revolutionary design which is not only ecofriendly, pollution free but also very economical. With some modifications in storage tank, pneumatic cylinder, materials used for chassis it is possible to increase the performance of vehicle.
