Introduction
This is an transport idea put forth by Elon Mask.
Hyperloop is 5th mode of transport emerged quite
recently.
This is an transport idea put forth by Elon Mask.
It has an capsule containing passengers or goods
moving inside an partially vacuum tube.
It can travel at maximum speed of 1200kmph and in
an average speed of about 800kmph.
This runs on advanced linear motor system principle.
Artistic View of Hyperloop
Capsule

Capsule is the main transporting part of this


system. It mainly consists of compressor Motor
Batteries.
A single capsule can be economically designed for
26 or more people perhaps even goods.
It is aerodynamically designed to achieve very less
friction from air passing by at very high speed.
On-board Power and Propulsion
The passenger capsule power system includes an
estimated 2,500 kg of batteries to power the capsule
systems in addition to the compressor motor.
They can be simultaneously charged while the capsule
is moving.
Capsule is propelled by Advanced Linear Motor
System which can accelerate is to an average speed of
700 kmph.
Time Graph
Energy consumption
Advantages
Due to very less wear and tear, there is very less
maintenance.
Theoretically very safe compared to other means.
It would be rather cheap than any other means of
transport.
Once installed it requires virtually zero external
energy to operate.
Very eco-friendly.
Travel will be lot fast and easier.
Disadvantages
There is no working route yet.
As of now it is air levitated, but in future would be
magnetically levitated which will drastically increase
its performance.
Due to very high speeds in an completely closed
capsule it may feel uncomfortable for some people.
Completely new network of routes should be
constructed.
Conclusion
Its clear that hyperloop is very fast and safe
compared to other means.
Hyperloop is cost efficient in long run.
Its eco-friendly as it almost completely relays on
Solar energy.
