Compress air engines

[TommeyLReed]

I have many years in designing engines that run on air, this is just some of my designs:

One good thing about compress air is:

1) The energy you put in, is always store better then any battery.

2) Heat can increase pressure, as well as cold will decrease it also.

3) Low pressure air pumps can be used as wind pump turbine to store the wind in tank.

4) my submersible engine use 5psi at higher cfm to generate lots of hp in oceans or lakes. as the waves move up/down the floats generates low air pressure that is force  pressure 10ft under water to a displacement system. As this unit is force upward it creates mechanical work. Wind turbine can also be added to pump system.

Sir
Are you familiar with the work of Lee Rogers?

I am seeking info on his air engine...

do you have a shop for replication work [light machine work] ?

thx

Hi Chet,

Look up Terry Miller air can in the 80's, interesting project also.


I have a small basic machine shop in my back yard.

40"x7" metal lathe
15" lathe/mill
7" metal lathe
Sherline cnc
welders
metal cutting
plasma cutter
20 ton press
drill presses
and other types of tools.

This does not count for the electronics equipment also.

I would say 50K+ in tools

Have a beer, I will rather buy a tool......

[ramset]

Yes  I completely agree the tools are much better than the beers.
sent you a PM
thx
Chet
