French Air Car

Good Post!

I remember the French Air Car coming out but then it disappeared?

lee rogers air motor

There is some info on the lee rogers car motor here: Roto Verter

Here is a really cool book this air site has on his download pagehttp://www.aircaraccess.com/pdf/cons...20I%201-50.pdf

It is by George Constantinesco the great researcher into pusled energy like jackhammers, and the great torque coverter on rexresearch siteGeorge Constantinesco: Inertial Transmission (US Patent 1591471 etc)

Thanks Aaron.
Ive always loved the idea of compressed air for cars. The French car is supposed to be build in India this year
We will see. You know how these things go

A car that runs on air, in India soon

Scott Robertson

Sykavy,

Yes, this IS an excellent site. I have corresponded for over three years with the person who put this site together. His name is Scott Robertson and he currently lives in The Philippines. It is a treasure trove of information on how to gain free energy from compressed air. The most important fact to realize is that the very act of compressing air yields free energy. This happens because, according to the mathematical formula PT/V, 100% of the energy required to compress the air is converted to HEAT, but then you also have the compressed air that can produce mechanical energy when it is expanded again.

A home heating system that uses this principle was patented in 1930 and is available for download here: THERMAL PLANT - Google Patents

This is real, free energy, right under everyone's nose.

Good work, Sykavy!!

compressed air

Peter, that is a very profound concept!

Taking it Further

Aaron,

Yes, the implication is, if you conserve BOTH the heat and the pressure, in one simple compression stroke, you have more energy available than you started with. The problem with compressed air systems is that they get rid of the heat immediately, primarily because it is building up SO FAST.

A Diesel Engine uses this "heat of compression" to ignite the fuel to initiate the power stroke. Rudolf Diesel's original engine was 75% efficient, primarily because he used such high compression. It was also the original "bio-fuel" engine, running on Peanut Oil.

The point is, in long conversations between Scott Robertson and I two years ago, we came to the conclusion that an engine could be built that ran on HOT WATER and the degraded SOLAR ENERGY resident in the ambient air temperature. The machine consists of a high compression air compressor as the first stage and a steam engine as the second stage. The compressed air is deposited in an insulated chamber between the two cylinders, where hot water is injected. The "heat of compression" boils the water, so the total temperature of the system goes DOWN, but the pressure goes way up. This mixture of hot air and steam is dumped into the steam engine side and converted to more mechanical energy than is required for the compression stroke. The exhaust is air, steam and hot water. The steam is condensed back to hot water and all of the hot water is recycled to be used over and over.

The machine can be thought of as a "SOLAR STEAM ENGINE" that does not require a boiler, or even for the Sun to be out, for that matter. It can also be thought of as a "COMPRESSED AIR MOTOR" that does not require a tank of compressed air. It is really a HEAT ENGINE, that uses water as the working fluid and runs on the heat in the ambient air.

Oh, and by the way, the heat in the ambient air is the ultimate energy source on a WARMING PLANET!!!!!

Keep thinking.

Peter

PS. This engine design and theory is conceptual. Neither Scott nor I have had the resources necessary to attempt to build one yet.

thanks Peter for the info. such a simple thing that just hasn't been explored enough.

One of the articles on the website above said that airtrains were common in coal mining and especially through out Europe in 1920's -1930's.

An inventor Charles Bowen Hodges came up with a way of using the compressor's extra heat to expand the air.

Here is an elegant ( even beautiful) air engine very efficient. I think it is a much better design than the French one that India plans on producing


www.engineair.com.au
"We have verification of its performance
We have patents issued
It has outstanding efficiency
It has constant high torque
It has low parts count
It has low number of moving parts
It is compact and light
It has virtually no friction
It has virtually no vibration
It has smooth speed control characteristics
Only 1 PSI of pressure is needed to overcame the friction
THAT'S CORRECT ONLY 1 PSI !!"

If there was some way to put an efficient compressor on board !WOW!!

Precisely!

Sykavy,

Yes, the diAngelo rotary air motor is the best one out there. We contacted him a few years ago, and he knows that compressed air has OU potential. The best compressors are the Copeland Rotary Scroll Compressors. Used mostly in large AC units, they are between 20% and 30% cheaper to run for the same work.

All that is needed to build a self-running car, based on this technology, is a few extra million$ and a couple of years to work out the bugs!

Air is so amazing!! I don't know how many people have heard of Tornado in a can
Frank Polifka calls his Windhexe machine "Tornado in a Can". It safely harnesses the enormous power of a funnel cloud in a small mechanical canister. The efficiency with which it can pulverize a wide array of items defies conventional physics and invites a new model to be constructed to explain how vortex energy operates.

The patent doesn't have any pictures. I wonder how it works? if it is cold and hot air like a tornado?
Still air is amazing.
I always thought why would we want to bring the sun to earth with fusion when a tornado or a huricane has more than enough energy for us to use.

Guys, there is a lee rogers compressed air/RV concept at the end of this compilation. Thanks for the education Peter

Peter,

The compressors in the AC units are powered by ac...

Why not connect the compresser (auto ac unit) to a serpentine system...
Motor Briggs 5 hp...connect air lines pull start cord or provide a start tank and run the engine alone.

You could possible connect a generator in the serpentine system and have free energy yes...

Just asking...I don't know alot about compressed air...seems to be doable

Have you check out the website? It should answer most of your questions about compressed air.

My first thought is that by putting another load on the engine only adds the the the entire load of the motor. Compressed air isnt magical. It still obeys the laws of energy; you can't get out more than you put in but in a special way it can be used similar to a battery that stores solar energy. It doesnt store the energy itself but can be used to collect the energy (Heat) that surrounds it. There is a lot of thinking and gadgetry that must go into organizing it the right way to get OU.

Compressed air has potential but it can be pretty complicated too. This is the reason we don't have air cars everywhere it isn't as simple as it sounds but that being said it isn't as complicated as some other means of energy.

One way air motors could be OU simply; is If you had a solar/windmill compressor that worked all day (and night if there is wind) you store all that compressed air in tanks and then run a generator on that. The compressed air would replace electric batteries and compressed air can be stored for long periods of time with no loss of potential energy; while batteries charged by solar energy would store the energy but start wear down over time.

thats my thought but check out the above website to understand the great things the compressed air has done and can do.

windmill compressed air

Windmill compressed air is a VERY PRACTICAL solution that can be done now.
