Re the motorcycle and Yor-on: Wouldn't the obvious thing be to vent the gas to the outside after it's done its expanding / work? Or are you not talking of the motorcycle?
What two tanks?

sorry Sophie, got to eager there.
Was reading the first page and the discussion of heat.
Totally missed page two I'm afraid, as I started to wonder how the compressed air would behave if 'let out' to an empty tank.
Reading your answer to the Question posed I agree.
It sounds like an advanced challenge if they are going to modify a bike engine to air?
Perhaps its a theoretical exercise?
And yes, my thoughts do seem to fit in somehow?
Strange:)
