Forced Air Exhaust Cooling System

Abstract

An exhaust system to remove exhaust from an engine of a vehicle may include a first exhaust member to conduct the exhaust from the engine of the vehicle to the atmosphere and a source of pressurized fluid which may be air or gas to conduct the pressurized fluid to the first exhaust member to cool the exhaust from the engine of the vehicle. The source of pressurized fluid may be a blower, and the source of pressurized fluids may be a air dam. The blower may be connected to a battery of the vehicle, and the blower may include a sensor to determine if a predetermined speed has been reached to allow ram air input or to warn of back pressure, high temperature or current flow. The sensor may inactivate the blower when the predetermined speed has been reached. The source of pressurized fluid may be compressed air, and the source of the pressurized fluid may be refrigerated air.

1 . An exhaust system to remove exhaust from an engine of a vehicle, comprising:
 a first exhaust member to conduct the exhaust from the engine of the vehicle to the atmosphere, and   a source of pressurized fluid to conduct the pressurized fluid to the first exhaust member to cool the exhaust from the engine of the vehicle.   
   
   
       2 . An exhaust system to remove exhaust from an engine of a vehicle as in  claim 1 , wherein the source of pressurized fluid is a blower. 
   
   
       3 . An exhaust system to remove exhaust from an engine of a vehicle as in  claim 1 , wherein the source of pressurized fluid is a air dam. 
   
   
       4 . An exhaust system to remove exhaust from an engine of a vehicle as in  claim 2 , wherein the blower is connected to a battery of the vehicle. 
   
   
       5 . An exhaust system to remove exhaust from an engine of a vehicle as in  claim 2 , wherein the blower includes a sensor to determine if a predetermined speed has been reached to allow the utilization of air dams. 
   
   
       6 . An exhaust system to remove exhaust from an engine of a vehicle as in  claim 1 , wherein the source of pressurized fluid is compressed air. 
   
   
       7 . An exhaust system to remove exhaust from an engine of a vehicle as in  claim 1 , wherein the source of pressurized fluid is refrigerated air.
