AIR POWER CAR

One of the major problems most developing countries facing today is air pollution and the major source of which is automobiles running on road. To reduce the world’s pollution problems there is no one optimum solution, but one thing is for sure; the automobile must clean up its act. Automobile factors like an increase in fossil fuel consumption eventually emissions of HC, NO_x, and CO₂ will be increased in accordance with these factors. The huge number of vehicles in the developing countries will give a serious environmental load and therefore current technologies like engine control and catalyst should be transferred to developing countries to minimize automobile emissions.

The CO₂ emission ratio during actual use is extremely large compared to other process. Therefore; it would be very effective to develop high fuel economy and low fuel consumption from CO₂ emission point of view. Concerning resource availability there has been a strong warning indicating that petroleum resources may be depleted in the relative near future.

Gasoline which has been the main source of fuel for the history of cars is becoming more and more expensive and impractical, especially from an environmental standpoint. In the process of burning gasoline, it produces carbon monoxide, Nitrogen oxides and unburned hydrocarbons which are the main pollutants and are responsible for bad effects of pollution.

17th ISME Conference

About the Conference

The 17th ISME Conference on Advances in Mechanical Engineering is the seventeenth in a series of conferences organised by Indian Society of Mechanical Engineers (ISME). The conference will be held during October 3-4, 2015 in Indian Institute of Technology Delhi, New Delhi. In the new millennium, research in mechanical engineering has progressed towards emerging areas such as processing of advanced materials, micro/nano manufacturing, microfluidics, energy harvesting and utilization, biomechanics, medical robotics and precision mechatronics. The purpose of this conference will be to bring together the mechanical engineering community to explore, disseminate and strengthen initiatives in such new directions under the broad areas of manufacturing, thermofluids and mechanical design.

About IIT Delhi

Indian Institute of Technology Delhi, where ICAME 2015 will be organized, is one of the fifteen Institutes of Technology created as centers of excellence for training, research and development in science, engineering and technology in India. HRH Prince Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh, laid the foundation stone of the Institute on January 27, 1959. Established as College of Engineering in 1961, the institute was later declared as an Institution of National Importance and renamed "Indian Institute of Technology Delhi" in 1963. The Institute has made a notable mark in higher technical education and research. It has been ranked very high among national and international institutions of higher learning. The Institute is celebrating its Golden Jubilee Year during 2010-2011.

IIT Delhi is situated at Hauz Khas in South Delhi, which is a landmark place in the colourful and chequered history of Delhi. The Institute campus with an area of 320 acres is flanked by the famous Qutub Minar and the Hauz Khas monuments. With many topographical features, imaginatively laid out with picturesque landscape, numerous buildings of various nature and stature, and clean and wide roads, the campus presents a spectacle of harmony in architecture and natural beauty. Well connected to the major city centres by open and wide roads, the Institute campus is about 19 km away from the Delhi Main Railway Station, 14 km from the New Delhi Railway Station, 21 km from the Inter-State Bus Terminal and 15 km from Delhi Airport.
