But unless someone comes up with a cheaper track design, it stays science fiction.

Japan just did first Maglev public test on 22nd September 2014, it reached 500 km/h. Congrats! The driverless maglev train utilizes a high-tech propulsion system called the “L-Zero” system that first brings the train to a speed of 160 km/hour. Upon reaching 160 km/hour, the train initiates the maglev system and slowly accelerates to 500 km/hour, JR Tokai said.
@MegamikazeMoriko9 жыл бұрын
Pay attention! The Maglev trains do NOT go 3,500km/h, they ONLY go that fast when there is no air resistance, no air. (The description says so as well!) But because maglevs work where there is air, their max speed is generally lower then what it is. If I remember, maglev trains go about 500km/h in normal air conditions and air resistance (wind may also effect speed).

Maglev (derived from magnetic levitation) is a system of train transportation that uses two sets of magnets: one set to repel and push the train up off the track, and another set to move the elevated train ahead, taking advantage of the lack of friction. Along certain "medium-range" routes (usually 320 to 640 km [200 to 400 mi]), maglev can compete favourably with high-speed rail and airplanes.
@nigelrg16 жыл бұрын
It doesn't just sound like science fiction, it is science fiction. The Chinese has the longest commercial system in the world, from downtown Shanghai to Shanghai airport, a distance of 20 miles. They planned to extend it by 200 miles south but at the last minute, changed the project to conventional high-speed rail. No reason given. The technology's been around for over 20 years. There has to be a reason why it's not being used.

There was a British version in the 1960's, tested in Earith Cambridgeshire. It could accelerate to 100mph and to rest again in a mile of track. That was pretty fast in those days. The technology was there but the track design had problems, which is why it was being tested in that fen landscape. However, the Beeching cuts of the late 1960's stopped it in its tracks (pun intended). I believe the original 'locomotive' is on display somewhere near Peterborough.

for everyone saying the TGV is faster at like ~570 km/h, that is when they did the world record attempt, where this train beat it and did around 600 km/h. This video refers to the max service speed, which is a lot less for both trains, and this maglev train is still faster.
@MilesBader7 жыл бұрын
I think the real issue is that the 574kph TGV was _highly_ modified, as was the track (the catenary was highly over-tensioned IIRC) for the record run. It wouldn't be practical in revenue service. The JR maglev on the other hand, did its fastest run in a configuration which is very similar to what they'll use in revenue service. One big advantage of maglev is that maintenance issues are easier/cheaper, as there's far less track/catenary/etc wear from operation (doesn't touch track, no catenary) and (especially with JR's tech) the train is more forgiving and so doesn't require the fine track tolerances that steel-wheel HSR does....
@MacXpert746 жыл бұрын
The 'normal' version of the TGV could reach 515 Km/h in earlier tests. But operating it at that speed would not be economical, so the normal speed is limited at around 320 Km/h.

@@MacXpert74 definitely wrong, read what Made wrote about it abovethe track was sloping, the track bed was specially reinforced, the locomotive had a special transmission ratio, there were only a few wagons the overhead line had a special contact wire and some more.

The video is completely wrong. JR's maglev uses both attraction and repulsion - and there are no magnets in the track whatsoever. The magnets are all in the walls, with 2 rows. The bottom row pushes and pulls the train. The top row pulls the train up slightly, keeping it off the track. The opposing magnets on the side of the train are superconducting and rapidly alternate their polarization. When the train reaches 100kmph, the wheels are retracted. It's the fastest passenger-capable train in existence.

I can see a serious safety flaw with the electrostatic magnets in practice, if electricity is cut (power failure or lightning strike) the motion of the train would stop instantly on a dime, as all of the huge train magnets would stick to the train rails, sending the passengers through the windows at 700 miles per hour!

Problem is conventional rail carries passengers and freight. That synergy overrides the faster, efficient argument of maglev which is passenger only.

Maglev. Invented by the Great British Inventor, Eric Laithwaite with the world's first commercial maglev train opened in 1984 in Birmingham. It travelled 600m at only 42km/h and was closed in 1995 because of reliability and design problems.
@bieneulm19822 жыл бұрын
The first maglev that ran on high speed again was the German Transrapid 06 in 1988 with already 412km/h. The predecessor Transrapid 07 reached 450km/h in 1993. The Transrapid 08 then, up until today in service as Shanghai SMT, reached 501km/h in 2003.

The magnets that lift the train off the track are cooled by liquid helium (so they can operate in superconductive mode); pretty expensive-about $100,000,000/mile.

Linear motors are what propels the People Mover at Walt Disney World. His vision was that one day all mass transit would use this principle, but back in the 70's the technology was deemed too expensive.

1974 to be exact, on Larry King show. We could have built vacuum maglev trains that would achieve speeds of 2000 miles per hour back then. Today, ET3 has touted speeds of 4000 miles per hour (as this system would use capsules in vacuum tubes as opposed to actual full sized trains) - which in turn lowers the amount of resources needed to build everything

With the very same principle like a normal electric motor. Imagine the train as the rotating axis of the motor. Now cut the outer static part of the motor somewhere and put it straight on the ground. Instead of rotating the train is moving now on the static part. I learnt this basic principle as a child on a German school 28 years ago.

The reason it's hardly used is because tickets in Europe or the US would be super expensive. These trains cost a fortune , also in operation. The maglev shuttle in China is just a prestige project, it's not even such a long track.
