2. Air compressor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_compressor

   Air compressor supplies air into a nail gun.. An air compressor is a machine that takes ambient air from the surroundings and discharges it at a higher pressure. It is an application of a gas compressor and a pneumatic device that converts mechanical power (from an electric motor, diesel or gasoline engine, etc.) into potential energy stored in compressed air, which has many uses.

3. Compressed-air energy storage - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressed-air_energy_storage

   Compressed-air energy storage. A pressurized air tank used to start a diesel generator set in Paris Metro. Compressed-air energy storage (CAES) is a way to store energy for later use using compressed air. At a utility scale, energy generated during periods of low demand can be released during peak load periods. [ 1]

   The tanks must be designed to safety standards appropriate for a pressure vessel, such as ISO 11439. [7]The pressure vessels or air storage tanks that can be used in compressed-air vehicles can be made of low pressure (9 atm (130 psi)) or high pressure (more than 240 atm (3,500 psi)), and can be made of composite materials like thermoplastic and fiber reinforced thermoplastics, [6] [8] that ...

5. Diving cylinder - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diving_cylinder

   A diving cylinder or diving gas cylinder is a gas cylinder used to store and transport high pressure gas used in diving operations. This may be breathing gas used with a scuba set, in which case the cylinder may also be referred to as a scuba cylinder, scuba tank or diving tank. When used for an emergency gas supply for surface supplied diving ...

6. Steam locomotive components - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steam_locomotive_components

   Contains either high-pressure compressed air or air at lower than atmospheric pressure (vacuum), depending on whether the locomotive has an air brake or vacuum brake system. [ 6]: 483–486 [ 3]: 1. Water compartment. Tank for water to be used by the boiler to produce steam. [ 3]: 79. Coal bunker.

7. Compressed-air car - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressed-air_car

   Diagram of a compressed air system with a PCM heat exchanger. A compressed-air car is a compressed-air vehicle powered by pressure vessels filled with compressed air. It is propelled by the release and expansion of the air within a motor adapted to compressed air. The car might be powered solely by air, or combined (as in a hybrid electric ...
