China's super-speed train can reach 1,000km / h

can be reached 1,000 km / h is being researched and developed in China, promising to change traffic in the future.

The 45m track train is being developed by Deng Zigang and colleagues from the Applied Superconducting Laboratory at Southwest Jiaotong University in Chengdu, China, Global Times 4 / 3 reported. The ship incorporates two technologies, magnetic stripe technology, that suppresses friction between the wheels and rails and moves them in the pipeline to eliminate friction with air, according to a project Deng's team published on the site. of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers in the United States.

Deng and colleagues reduced the air pressure in a 6m-wide pipe to 2.9 kilopascals in a test run at a top speed of 50km / h. For comparison, the standard air pressure is 101,325 kilopascal.

Although the idea of a high-speed train is interesting, researchers still have to find ways to address technical issues including safety and cost, according to Sun Zhang, a railroad professor and professor at Tongji University, Shanghai. "The ship needs to be able to stop at any time. This can be achieved outdoors using air resistance, but running in a vacuum pipe without any collision can become a problem. What if the pipeline breaks and the air enters? That could be another matter, " Sun said.

In the field of magnetic buffer technology, a Japanese train is holding the world record. The train speeds up to 603km / h in 2016 on the test run. However, China remains the leading country when operating the world's fastest commercial buffer.
