Abstract

Abstract: This paper work deals with the Compressed- air vehicle as a pneumatic actuator that converts one form of energy into another. The Air Driven Vehicle is an eco-friendly vehicle which operates with compressed air. This Vehicle uses the expansion of compressed air to drive the pistons of the vehicle. An Air Driven Vehicle is a pneumatic actuator that creates useful work by expanding compressed air. There is no mixing of fuel with air as there is no combustion. An Air Driven Vehicle makes use of Compressed Air Technology for its operation The Compressed Air Technology is quite simple. If we compress normal air into a cylinder the air would hold some energy within it. This energy can be utilized for useful purposes. When this compressed air expands, the energy is released to do work. So this energy in compressed air can also be utilized to displace a piston. Compressed air propulsion may also be incorporated in hybrid systems, e.g., battery electric propulsion and fuel tanks to recharge the batteries. This kind of system is called hybrid-pneumatic electric propulsion. Additionally, regenerative braking can also be used in conjunction with this system
