- 3. INTRODUCTION The Hyper loop is an proposed mode of passenger / goods cargo transportation It uses the technology of VACTRAIN VACTRAIN (vacuum tube trains )it is a very high speed rail transportation . This is an emerging technology in which all the nations are looking forward to install this tech. This gives a ease of transportation and with low energy consumption
- 4. PROBLEM ANALYSIS As we face many problems for transporting of passengers and goods , it causes a lot pollution problems. In the metropolitan cities to reduce crowd in trains and to increase the speed and time of transportation the usage of metros as public transportation has come into use, but the efficiency of these trains are not up to the mark .
- 5. PROBLEM ANALYSIS Speed of transportation is less when compared to the vactrains. The time taken to travel from one place to another is more. The energy utilized by the diesel and electric trains is more .
- 6. EFFICIENCY Los Angeles CA-San Francisco CA Distance-381.7 mi Cost: Hyperloop - $20 Car/bus - $25 to $40 Train - $60 to $300 Flight - $106 &.....
- 7. WORKING The hyperloop works on the principle of MAGALEV(magnetic levitation) . It is a sealed tube of system in which the POD is used for travelling . The trains travel under the pressure of 1millibar of pressure(100pa).
- 8. WORKING It works against the air and frictional resistance . The capsules or pods used are levitated to 0.02- 0.05 mm It can travel a distance of 560km’s at a speed of 1200km/h allowing a time of 35 mins.
- 9. WORKING A Specially designed “pod” is sent into a steel tube which is maintained at a partial vacuum. It’s working is similar to a air hockey table The internal acceleration is 2 to 3 times greater than takeoff and landing
- 10. CONCLUSION The use of hyperloop gives us reduction in time and energy. The pod is highly sealed in vacuum to withstand high pressure and speed . With this technology proposed at different nations , India being one among them has proposed routes from Chennai to Bangalore & Chennai to Mumbai , it may be highly efficient and less time consumption. Though the cost of implementation is high, the benefits are more like very less travel time.
