Spaceman says...

[snip]

It blasts air internally into a (partial vacuum) in pulses
when it can and uses solar power to run the compressers
to compress the air again when needed.
Did you look at it at all?

That's hard to do; the hard part is getting past the inevitable
snickering fit that overtakes the reader after readying "to
compres the ari again when needed";)

So you don't understand simple mechancial processes of air
compressors?

How does the pulse of air get back around to the compressor inlet?

It has to bounce of the right hand wall right.

It does not "bounce" with the full pressure
it pushed with.

Yes it does. Due to conservation of momentum.

So you think air does not expand as it is released
from a pressurized unit then?


I didn't say that. Not that it makes any difference. If you throw snowballs
at something the energy released at impact depends on the mass not the
density.
