Hyperloop is the most ambitious project in the whole world. Every engineering student must learn about it.its all about hyperloop a-z information, a basic working principle to expert views, detailed literature survey with references. I have studied detailed for 3rd-year academic seminars and prepared presentations and detailed reports.

4. HYPERLOOP: INTRODUCTION
•
•
•
•
Hyperloop is a new & 5th mode of
transportation.
Proposed by ELON MUSK American
business magnet, investor, and inventor. He
currently owns PAYPAL,TESLA MOTORS,
SOLARCITY, SPACE-X, BORING COPMANY.
Traffic between Los Angeles to San
Francisco motivates ELON MUSK.
A high-speed train that promises travel at
twice the speed of airplane

5. INTRODUCTION
•
•
•
Passengers seat in pod or capsule which
sled in sealed low pressurized tube
Pod floats on cushion of air created by
propulsion system of magnetic levitation
using linear induction motor.
The pods would accelerate to cruising
speed gradually using a linear electric
motor and glide above their track using
passive magnetic levitation or air
bearings.

8. TUBE
•
•
•
•
The tube is made of steel.
There are two tubes which are welded
together side by side configuration to
allow the capsules travel in both
directions.
The tube will be supported by RCC
pillars.
There are solar arrays are provided on
a top of the tubes for the purpose of
power to the system.

9. CAPSULE OR POD
•
•
The capsule can carry 28
passengers at a time and it
send at a very high speed and
it is levitated by a high
pressure air cushion.
The design of capsule is start
with the aerodynamic shape.
•
•
The capsules are separated within the tube by approximately 23 miles (37 km) on
average during operation.
The capsules are supported via air bearings that operate using a compressed air
reservoir and aerodynamic lift.

10. PROPULSIONS
•
•
•
To accelerate and decelerate the capsule
the linear induction motor is used in
hyperloop system.
It provides some advantages over a
permanent magnet motor. To accelerate the
capsules there is linear accelerators are
constructed on a length of the tube.
Stators are placed on the capsules to
transfer motion to the capsules via the
linear accelerators.

11. WORKING
•
•
Working of hyperloop system is based on magnetic levitation principle. As
we know that the passenger pad travel through low pressure tube
In hyperloop system an air compressor fan is fitted on front side of pod
which sucks the air. It transfer high pressure air front side to the rear side of
capsule (pod) and it propel the pod. It creates the air cushion around the pod,
so that the pod is suspended in air within the tube.

12. WORKING
•
•
•
On the basis of magnetic levitation principle the pod will be propelled by the
linear induction motor. By the linear induction motor the capsule send from
one place to another place to a subsonic velocity that is slower than the
speed of sound.
The pod will be self-powered. There is solar panel fitted on top of the tube.
By this solar panel there is enough energy is stored in battery packs to
operate at night and in cloudy weather for some periods. The energy is also
is stored in the form of compressed air.
The air between the capsule acts as a cushions to prevent two capsules
from colliding within the tube.

13. SEMIFINAL ROUTES IN INDIA
•
•
•
•
•
Mumbai to Pune – time required 30 minutes
Benglore to Chennai- 20 minutes
Mumbai to Chennai- 50 minutes
Benglore to Thiruvananthapuram- 41 minutes
Delhi to Mumbai- 55 minutes

14. ADVANTAGES
•
•
•
•
•
Environmentally friendly (rail/road via electric cars)
Runs trough the median of existing highway
Pod can’t crash
Energy efficient due to solar power it generates more power than
it consumes.
Runs 24x7 by using stored power.

15. DISADVANTAGES
•
•
•
•
Huge capital cost of US$6 billion.
Experience could be frightening to seat in windowless capsule,
inside sealed tunnel.
Fast acceleration & deceleration, noise & vibration could cause
motion sickness.
If any malfunction of equipment happens there must be
emergency evacuation system.

16. CONCLUSION
•
•
•
Hyperloop transportation system can be used over the conventional modes
of transportation that are rail, road, water and air.
At very high speed it provides better comfort and cost is also low.
By reducing the pressure of the air in the tube which reduces simple air drag
and enables the capsule to move.
