HYPERLOOP

Hyperloop is an ultra high speed transportation system where both people and goods can be transported to mobility hubs of metropolitan cities. The term was coined by Elon Musk to describe the modern open source project derived from the vactrain concept. It consists of a sealed and partially evacuated tube though which pressurized vehicle usually known as pod can move, and terminal fans also fixed there. Here the pods are floating through the tube by magnetic levitation ( method by which an object is suspended with no support other than magnetic fields) and propulsion ( accelerating an object by the utilization off a flowing electrical current and magnetic fields. The electric current is used either to create an opposing magnetic field, or to charge a field, which can then be repelled) are used.





Linear motor fixed in the tube helps in linear contactless movement of pod. Vaccum pumps on the sides of tube can eliminate the air drag. Solar panels are fixed on the top of tubes. Absence of friction and air resistance can eliminate the requirement of fuel and current for the working. It is climate neutral over the course of it's life cycle. Virgin hyperloop conducted the first human trial in November 2020 at its test in Las Vegas, reaching a top speed of 172 km/h. Researchers are working on this project to launch it in their country.
