COMPRESSED AIR PRODUCTION USING VEHICLE SUSPENSION

ABSTRACT
Pneumatic energy is the readily available and low cost energy. Non-conventional
energy system is very essential at this time to our nation. So that the pneumatic type of
energy is considered here. The compressed air can be produced with the help of motion of
wheel. Then this compressed air is used to operate the vehicle. Compressed air production
using vehicle suspension needs no fuel input power to produce the output of the air.
For this seminar the conversion of the force energy in to air occurs. The control
mechanism carries the air cylinder (vehicle suspensor), quick exhaust valve, Non-return valve
and spring arrangement. We have discussed the various applications and further extension
also. The initial cost of this arrangement is high.
