AIR POWER | The Theory Behind the Pneumatic Building Blocks
The Theory Behind the Pneumatic Building Blocks １．What is a hovercraft? The hovercraft is a young vehicle with a very short history. The idea was developed and patented by the English engineer Sir Christopher Cockerell in 1955. He started with the idea of building a faster motorboat by floating the boat on air and thus avoiding the resistance of the water below. After much experimentation, he developed the innovative, amphibious hovercraft, which can be driven at high speeds on water and on land.

２．The structure of hovercraft The hovercraft is mainly composed of two propellers. One allows the hovercraft to float on air, and the other allows it to move forward. The most important feature is a flexible skirt that extends around the bottom of the hovercraft, trapping the air underneath it. The propellers are also called fans.
Thrust Propeller This propeller pushes the hovercraft forward. It produces a larger airflow than the lift propeller, which provides the driving force to move forward.
Lift Propeller This propeller lifts the hovercraft up. Though the nozzle is narrow, it is very powerful.
Skirt The skirt traps the air generated by the lift propeller to float the whole vehicle. Its flexibility allows it to trap the air on uneven surfaces, preventing the air from leaking out.

The Theory Behind the Pneumatic Building Blocks | AIR POWER
３．How does the hovercraft float and move forward? A hovercraft uses the force of air to move. Unlike a helicopter, it pushes itself into the air by producing a powerful airflow underneath it. It creates a cushion of air in the space between its main body and the ground or water.
The skirt plays an essential role in maintaining the air cushion. Air sucked in from the outside by the lift propeller is blown into the skirt, creating a pillow of air. The air has nowhere to go but to leak out through the space between the skirt and the ground or water. This allows the hovercraft to float lightly in the air and move forward.
４．The function of the propeller (fan) The lift propeller and thrust propeller are very different in form and function. They have been specially designed to maximize their efficiency and effectiveness.
Lift Propeller (Blower machine)
Casing of the Casing of the Blower Machine Blower Machine
When its blades rotate at high speed, the lift propeller creates

a centrifugal force inside its chamber, which pushes the air in the chamber outward from the center. This creates a rotating cyclone. All of the air flows in the same direction as shown in Figure B, which increases the air pressure and pushes the air
Motor Motor
out the nozzle. It generates enough power to lift a hovercraft’s heavy body and also to make a ball float in the air!
Fig. A
Fig. B
By letting the air blow out of the top of the blower, you can float a polystyrene foam ball in midair. If the ball starts to slip to one side, the faster airflow on the other side pulls the ball back to the center (right side of the picture below). The picture on the right shows that the ball is more stable when it rests in the center of the stream of air. Quick
Slow

The quick air flow will attract the ball strongly.
It becomes stable on the center.
AIR POWER | The Theory Behind the Pneumatic Building Blocks
Designed for propulsion The fan blades rotate along a rotary axis and create the air flow. This causes the air to swirl in the direction indicated by the arrows in the picture to the right. This generates a huge amount of wind power which can be used for propulsion.
５．The Hovercraft has a lot of muscle Hovercraft float by taking in air and blowing it out toward the ground. The lift propeller is not as powerful as that of a helicopter. The hovercraft cleverly uses a fundamental law of air pressure to stay afloat with a less powerful propeller. Surrounding the space between the hovercraft and the ground is a structure called a skirt that keeps the air underneath the hovercraft, so it needs less power to float. According to Pascal’s Law of air pressure, the air pressure created by the blower pushes outward equally on all sides of the cushion made by the skirt, the ground, and the bottom of the hovercraft. Therefore, the larger the surface area of the cushion of air, the lower the air pressure needed to lift the hovercraft.
Pascal’s ALaw A
1. See the picture to the right. It shows a container with fluid inside. Both A and B are the same weight. If the covers on both sides have the same area, then the system will be balanced and A and B will be level. 2. If you increase the area and weight of B to five times that of A, what will happen? Actually, they will remain balanced! Although you increased the area and weight B, and now A has relatively smaller force (weight), A still generates a pressure equal to B.
(model 4)
3. Even if you increase the area and weight of B by ten times, A will still stay balanced against B. If A represents the lift force from a hovercraft’s blower and it produces 10 grams of lift force, and if B represents the area enclosed by the skirt which is 10 times larger than the area of the blower nozzle, then the whole hovercraft could carry 10 times the lift force of the blower, or 100 grams.

６．Air can be very powerful You may have seen some buses that can raise and lower their bodies while the passengers get on and off the bus. How can these heavy buses do this? Where does the strength comes from? It is all thanks to the power of air. Other real-world demonstrations of air’s power include the domed roofs of sports arenas that are supported by air pressure, and some jacks that lift cars up with air.
Lowered for boarding
Raised for driving
When the passengers board the bus, the driver can lower the bus for them. When driving, the bus is raised up so its bottom does not hit the ground when it goes over a bump or hill.
The jack uses the power of air to easily lift up the car. The dome on this arena is supported by air.
７．All kinds of functions of air Earthquake resistant floating houses
Monitoring for earthquakes
①
An earthquake sensor buried underground is used to detect earthquakes as soon as they happen.
②
If an earthquake stronger than a certain seismic factor is detected, the house will float as soon as the controller opens the air valves for flotation.
③
When the shaking stops, the air will be diverted to a position-returning device, and the house will descend and return to its regular position.
④
Even in the case of aftershocks after a violent earthquake when the power grid is down, the system will work. At the time of power failure, the system will continue to monitor and control the flotation by using power from a temporary battery backup system. This system is called a seismic isolation system.

AIR POWER | The Theory Behind the Pneumatic Building Blocks Earthquake sensor detects
Floatation tank
Can you really float a house on air? Yes! In this system, a huge inflatable cushion is installed between the bottom of the house and its foundation. When it is inflated with air, the house floats! The principle is the same as that of a balloon. Air pressure will be exerted equally on all sides of the air cushion. This is why a balloon is more or less spherical in shape. In order to float the house, the force of the air pressure pushing on the bottom surface of the house must exceed the total weight of the house. But can the air pressure possibly create enough force to exceed the weight of a house? A house could weigh 100 metric tons! To calculate the pressure needed to lift this weight, the weight must be divided by the total surface area of the bottom of the house (the house’s footprint). The weight (100 metric tons) divided by the footprint area (for example, 80 square meters) would be 0.125 kg/cm². Do you know the air pressure of a standard car tire? It is about 2.0 kg/cm², or 16 times the pressure you would need to lift the house. Air can be quite powerful indeed!

10 Experiments with the Pneumatic Building Blocks | AIR POWER
8 Experiments with the Pneumatic Building Blocks: Experiment ①．Standard Hovercraft This is a hovercraft that floats on air. Because it floats on a thin layer of air, there is almost no friction between the hovercraft and the floor. Therefore, you only need to push it lightly and it will glide smoothly across the floor.
〈Let’s do the experiment〉 (Please refer to Model 1) After assembling the model, you can do the experiment on the table or the flat ground. Push the hovercraft with your hands and see what happens when you push it from different directions.
Experiment with Liner Motion at a Constant Speed An object moving on the ground will experience friction with the ground. Friction makes it difficult to maintain a constant speed. However, there is almost no friction between the hovercraft and the ground, so in this experiment the hovercraft moved at almost a constant speed.

Experiment ②．Propeller Hovercraft This is a hovercraft that is pushed forward by a propeller. It can move smoothly along the floor. If you change the direction of propeller, it will turn to the left, to the right, or in a tight circle.
〈Let’s do the experiment〉 (Please refer to Model 2) After assembling the model, you can do this experiment on a table or a smooth floor. Adjust the propeller to point in different directions and see how this alters the movement of your hovercraft.
Experiment with Liner Motion at an Accelerating Speed
Liner Motion in Accelerating Speed
In Experiment 1, you observed the hovercraft moving at a constant speed. In this experiment, you will see that the hovercraft will accelerate, or increase in speed, as it moves along the floor because the propeller pushes it forward.

Experiment ③．Propeller Hovercraft
(Making a ball float and move forward in the air.)
Set up the nozzle and divide the air from the blower to perform two functions. One stream of air lifts the hovercraft and the other is used to float the ball. Although it will decrease the power of the hovercraft’s flotation, it’s fun to watch the ball suspended in the air, as the hovercraft floats on the ground or water.
〈Let’s do the experiment〉 (Please refer to Model 3) Buoyed by the air stream, it looks like the ball is falling but remains suspended. This is because the air flow that blows upward from the nozzle encases the ball. The ball will sometimes fall slightly to the side, as the yellow arrow shows; however, the air flow will constantly pull the ball back to the center, as the red arrow shows.
Resultant force of the upward force and the resisting force Air resistance (resisting force)
Let’s try it!
Upward force caused by the Coanda effect
Use a board to create a ramp and push the hovercraft down the ramp. The ball will not fall even when the nozzle is tilted. This is because of the forces acting on the ball, as pictured on the right.

Experiment ④．Curling Hovercraft Reconfigure the hovercraft to act like an ice hockey puck with a handle. This is also like the sliding stone used in a sport called curling.

〈Let’s do the experiment〉 (Please refer to Model 6) Create a game board by covering the floor with paper and drawing zones with different point values. Although this game cannot be played like a real hockey game, you can have fun by using the hovercraft like a shuffleboard puck or a curling stone. Try to slide the puck and get it to stop entirely inside one of the zones. Because the hovercraft glides on air, it will have no trouble moving on the paper. It will be difficult to hit your target without much friction. You can have a string or wire on the paper to create more friction.

Experiment ⑤．Cargo Hovercraft Remove the cabin, the thrust propeller motor, and the battery box from the basic hovercraft, and replace them with a cargo platform. Try putting various books on it to see how much weight it can carry. This experiment gives you a chance to test out Pascal’s Law.
〈Let’s do the experiment〉

with two books
(Please refer to Model 4) In this experiment, you will configure the hovercraft to carry cargo. Although the force blowing from the blower is not enough to lift up a huge dictionary or a large bottle of water, it can lift up the hull of the hovercraft and some smaller items. Try putting other things on top of the hovercraft and see what happens.
Let’s try it! Pile the objects on the cargo platform slowly while the hovercraft is floating to see how much weight it can carry. When you reach the limit, you can use a scale to measure the total weight of the items.
Experiment ⑥．Moving Cargo Hovercraft This is a hovercraft with a cargo platform and a thrust propeller. You can put a couple small books on it, but this experiment will only work on smooth ground.
〈Let’s do the experiment〉 (Please refer to Model 5) Find various objects around the house and put them on the hovercraft. Although the propeller can only generate a small force, it can still move the hovercraft forward and carry the weight. How much weight can it carry? Let’s try it now.
Let’s try it! Pile the objects on the cargo platform slowly while the hovercraft is floating to see how much weight it can carry. When you reach the limit, you can use a scale to measure the total weight of the items.

Experiment ⑦．Pitching Machine Assemble an angled track down which the polystyrene ball can roll. At the lowest point, the blower machine is waiting. When it reaches that point, the ball will instantly be blown upward.
〈Let’s do the experiment〉 (Please refer to Model 7) Make a simple baseball bat using a rolled up piece of paper and try to hit the ball with it when it pops up. If you can use an empty box, waste basket, or washbasin at home, you set them up and then try to hit the ball into them to turn this into a batting game.
Experiment ⑧．Air Basketball Machine Assemble a basketball hoop and backboard. Use the blower motor to make an automatic basketball shooting machine and get ready to make some baskets!
〈Let’s do the experiment〉 (Please refer to Model 8) Use the blocks to assemble a basketball hoop and backboard. Use the blower motor to make an automatic basketball shooting machine. Adjust the angle and distance of the automatic basketball shooting machine and have fun trying to improve your “pump shot” to get the ball into the basket.
