Watch the first demonstration at full scale Hyperloop technology – Digital Journal

TODAY at 15:31

With video

 The Hyperloop is a means of transport proposed by billionaire Elon Musk, involving pods (coaches) of aluminum to move to higher speeds for steel pipes.

The startup Hyperloop One built the first test track in full scale in the Nevada desert, near Las Vegas, and accelerated a test vehicle on a railway track using a propulsion technology.

using the electric linear motor that will accelerate pods hyperloop in the future , engineers orchestrated an “outdoor propulsion test ‘(POAT).

According to Hyperloop One, the test vehicle (nicknamed” sled “) was 0-160 km / h in about a second generating a force of about 2.5G, and reached 185 km / h. He hit a lot of sand at the end because the team has not projected the brakes.

Hypothetically, the same engine can allow a projected vehicle more aerodynamic shape to reach speeds of 1,200 km / h in a very low tube pressure
