The technology of super speed trains is three times faster than airplanes

Maglev technology was first proposed in the mid-20th century and the current Maglev system in Shanghai could reach speeds of up to 430 km / h, making it the world's fastest passenger train.

Researchers at Shanghai Transnational Superconducting Study (China) have come up with the idea of super-speed vehicles based on Maglev technology that can deliver speed. Three times faster than airplanes.

Maglev technology was first proposed in the mid-20th century and the current Maglev system in Shanghai could reach speeds of up to 430 km / h, making it the world's fastest passenger train.

However, the 'Maglev' model can overcome this achievement. Chinese researchers have tested a vessel operating in a vacuum tube and thus reducing the speed limit due to air resistance still forming on conventional Maglev vessels.

If the project is successful, the pilot sample will set the standard for future use of the vacuum tube (ETT).

" ETT systems will enable the Maglev to reach speeds of up to 3,000 km / h and can be used in a number of military systems or launch systems," said Dr. Deng Zigang, who is developing. technology for many years for the Daily Mail.

Now the lab looks like it contains a toy ship, where ships move in a closed circular vacuum system with a diameter of 6 meters, which can reach speeds of up to 48 kilometers per hour. However, according to Deng Zigang, the speed limit is due to the small radius of the route.

He said that if the speed exceeds 400km / h, more than 83% of the transmission energy will be wasted due to air resistance. But in the vacuum tube design, this speed is easily overcome, due to the resistance is no longer.

The researcher does not limit his innovative work to ground transportation. He hoped that the same vacuum tube technology would be used to launch a spacecraft or help a super-fast weapon system.

On its side, the Chinese government can also use the new technology to connect the highways with Russia, Canada and the United States.
