Hyperloop Passenger Capsule ! H6 q/ O3 z1 O+ t
1. Tube air is compressed with a compression ratio of 20:1 via an axial compressor.
/ R9 i% T0 u( [0 z& z# U( L2. Up to 60% of this air is bypassed: 3 }# u: U L6 A
a. The air travels via a narrow tube near bottom of the capsule to the tail.
( I& f# I% d" X% L# i6 Lb. A nozzle at the tail expands the flow generating thrust to mitigate some of the small amounts of aerodynamic and bearing drag.
" J, a0 [+ ]' A3. Up to 0.44 lb/s (0.2 kg/s) of air is cooled and compressed an additional 5.2:1 for the passenger version with additional cooling afterward. 4 J f+ [$ Q3 C+ z
a. This air is stored in onboard composite overwrap pressure vessels. 5 r; {% s% v5 I
b. The stored air is eventually consumed by the air bearings to maintain distance between the capsule and tube walls. - o9 R6 n; Z5 D
4. An onboard water tank is used for cooling of the air. 2 \- X+ L/ K3 s, p7 u) M
a. Water is pumped at 0.30 lb/s (0.14 kg/s) through two intercoolers (639 lb or 290 kg total mass of coolant). $ Y q0 d+ L2 n! x4 K
b. The steam is stored onboard until reaching the station. - ^) a% S! V! ~6 e4 o/ z* u
c. Water and steam tanks are changed automatically at each stop. ! V7 C/ F* Z( T9 L( m
5. The compressor is powered by a 436 hp (325 kW) onboard electric motor: - I# L. { {/ }& e2 r4 N
a. The motor has an estimated mass of 372 lb (169 kg), which includes power electronics.
, V+ Y( H0 |. Xb. An estimated 3,400 lb (1,500 kg) of batteries provides 45 minutes of onboard compressor power, which is more than sufficient for the travel time with added reserve backup power. 6 W0 A- ~2 t5 g1 P3 z: f, ^% E i: h
c. Onboard batteries are changed at each stop and charged at the stations. |
