What we propose:
A watercraft comprising a compressed air propulsion system is shown and described. The watercraft includes at least one propeller operatively connected to an air motor. Storage tanks supply compressed air having a pressure of at least 2000 psi to a pressure regulator that reduces the pressure and supplies air to an air control valve. User controls adjust the air control valve to adjust the flow rate of air to the air motor which in turn adjusts the direction and/or speed of rotation of the propeller. An on-board air compressor energized by a plurality of lithium iron phosphate batteries provides air to the air storage tanks when the pressure falls below a specified value. In certain examples, the electric and air propulsion system is used to replace a fossil fuel engine in an existing watercraft and can remain at sea longer than the existing watercraft.
These engines will make it possible for vessels, of any size, to travel and function cost-free (and pollution free) for unlimited amounts of time and distances. "We can retrofit any boat from 25 feet to 600 feet,"
How it works
A specially-designed bank of rechargeable batteries provide power to a series of high pressure air compressors and air storage cylinders which are connected to air motors. Various sizes and types of such air motors are capable of generating propeller RPMs well in excess of speeds required to move watercraft. It sounds simple, because it is simple.
