    Concept art of hyperloop inner workings. Hyperloop is a proposed high-speed transportation system for both passengers and freight. [1] The concept behind the Hyperloop originated in the late 17th century with the invention of the world's first artificial vacuum, which led to designs for underground rapid transit systems powered by pneumatics in the decades that followed.

    It demonstrated a form of propulsion technology on May 11, 2016, at its test site in North Las Vegas. [6] It completed a 500 m (1,600 ft) Development Loop (DevLoop) [7] and on May 12, 2017, held its first full-scale test. The test combined Hyperloop components including vacuum, propulsion, levitation, sled, control systems, tube, and structures ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperloop_UPV

    Hyperloop UPV (a. k. a. Hyperloop Makers UPV) is a team of students from the Universitat Politècnica de València (Valencia, Spain) with the aim of designing Hyperloop, a proposed future means of transport. With renewable energies, the vehicle will levitate inside a vacuum tube, being able to reach 1,200 km/h (750 mph).

    The concept of the Hyperloop was popularized in 2013 by Elon Musk, not affiliated with HyperloopTT. [7] [8] The project was to develop a high speed, intercity transporter using a low pressure tube train which would reach a top speed of 800 miles per hour (1,300 km/h) with a yearly capacity of 15 million passengers. [9] [10] [11] HyperloopTT's ...

    Hyperloop pod competition test track. The Hyperloop Pod Competition was an annual competition sponsored by SpaceX from 2015 to 2019 in which a number of student and non-student teams participated to design—and for some teams, build—a subscale prototype transport vehicle in order to demonstrate technical feasibility of various aspects of the Hyperloop concept.

    Hyperloop developers aim to have capsules speeding through tubes at up to 700 kph (435 mph). Its backers say it's far more efficient than short-haul flights, high-speed rail and freight trucks, but it will involve significant investment in infrastructure. So far, in the limited space offered by the test center, the speed has been modest.

    The above-ground Hyperloop testing tube in Hawthorne had sat idle for several years, drawing complaints about road and pedestrian access, as well as questions of its purpose. Elon Musk's Hyperloop ...

  9. Kantrowitz limit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kantrowitz_limit

    The inclusion of a compressor in the Hyperloop pod circumvents the Kantrowitz limit, allowing the pod to travel at speeds over 700 mph (about 1126 km/h) in a relatively narrow tube. For a pod travelling through a tube, the Kantrowitz limit is given as the ratio of tube area to bypass area both around the outside of the pod and through any air ...
