INTRODUCTION
The vacuum based transportation system is a
conceptual high speed transportation system
incorporating reduced pressure tubes in which
pressurized capsules ride on air cushion driven by
Linear Induction Motors and air compressors.
The main objective of this project is to design
and analyze the outer structure of capsule which
is moving nearly the speed of the sound.
HISTORY
Pneumatic Capsule Transportation:- This concept was invented
by William Murdoch in 1836. It used capsule pipelines to
transmit the telegrams, to nearby buildings from telegraph
stations. This concept is still being used in banks and hospitals
and ships etc. to transport various parcels.
