Abstract
Prior to this paper some study was conducted that resulted to the conceptual design of the Canis Compressed Air Engine. This paper brings out the mathematical design of the Canis Compressed Air engine. It also highlights the study of the kinematic and internal dynamic formula. With the engine components movement likened to an eccentric circular cam, with a radial movement (Ri) and a normal movement component (Di) and a different (di), with the magnitude of the radial movement (Ri) and different (di) considered constant, respectively 4units and 1units, the mathematical formula describing the displacement, velocity and acceleration were verified. This verification, done graphically, ended up with the conclusion that this design of a compressed air engine, complies theoretically with the recommendations of accurate intake and exhaust positioning, smooth running and high efficiency due to absence of backlashing forces during intake. The theoretical internal dynamics analysis further proofs the susceptibility of a perfect intake then explosive expansion and a perfect exhaust for every expansion chamber.
Highlights
The Canis Compressed Air engine is an engine design that is powered solely by compressed air
This paper analyses the kinematics and dynamics formulations which were graphically studied and conclusions derived on the functioning principles of the machine
A complete functional cycle of this design consists of an intake, power and exhaust. These were considered to occur for each complete wing cycle of all the expansion chambers and so, to result each to a complete cycle of the output rotor centered at the point ‘O’
Summary
The Canis Compressed Air engine is an engine design that is powered solely by compressed air. This engine uses the rotary engine principle and prior to this paper the engine’s physical appearance was designed with the geometry of the parts and their assembly established by this same author (Fru, 2015). This paper analyses the kinematics and dynamics formulations which were graphically studied and conclusions derived on the functioning principles of the machine. In order to realize the kinematics formulations of this mechanism, (Vinogradov, 2000) a skeleton representation of what was thought of as the mechanism was established
