car that runs on compressed air.

OK so above this is the link to a site that to a car that's engine only has 5 parts and runs on compressed air, but the problem is that the air runs out to quick.

so i expanded on there idea so that the body of the car has pours all over the outside of the body of a car, but extremely small, the pours also would facing the front of the car with fans through out inside of the pours pipeline it creating a suction to refill , pipe would connect to the air compressor from each small pour working together onl the whole car could take in air when your on the highway and change rotate between each compressed air tank and refill the empty ones while your driving refilling the compressed air tanks. that's my idea of perpetual motion, nanotechnology is on the way. so imagine nano sized pours even on the body of a car..

  1. good idea when price of crude oil increase.

    the principle disadvantage is that of indirect energy use.

  2. OK.

    First of all, the air car:

    A colossal waste of energy.

    So much energy is lost as heat in the production of

    compressed air that unless there's a source of free

    energy somewhere, the idea is valueless.

    If you've got the free energy, there are far more

    efficient uses for it. (Electric cars beat air cars

    in efficiency, range, and flexibility.)

    Your Idea:

    You propose to put energy into moving the car,

    and then getting all the energy back out of the

    movement you've created.

    It just doesn't work that way. Energy is lost to

    friction heating, air resistance, etc.

    Your idea for 'ram compression micro-pores'

    would not work.

    What would drive your "fans"?

    They'd need a lot more energy to force air through

    small openings than you'd ever get back.

  3. I think you are talking about "pores".

    Perpetual motion is not possible, never was possible, never will be possible.

    Inventors have tried for hundreds of years, yet, not one success. Why? because it is impossible.
