SWISSMETRO Combined Propulsion With Levitation And Guidance
Swissmetro is a MAGLEV Project between the main cities of Switzerland, designed for a speed up to 500 [km/h] in two tunnels under partial vacuum. Two propulsion variants are considered: the short stators of the linear homopolar motors are fixed with the tunnel tracks; the stator of the motors is on board of the vehicles. The levitation, the guidance and the transfer of energy are independent. T...
متن کاملPropellantless Propulsion with Negative Matter Generated by High Electrostatic Potentials
Forward first pointed out that a gravitational dipole, consisting of ordinary and negative matter, would be self-accelerating thus creating the ultimate propellant-less propulsion system. It would closely resemble the features of a hypothetical space drive which has yet to be designed. Up to now, the key ingredient, negative matter, has not been found to exist in natural form. However, since E=...
متن کاملElectrostatic Levitation Technique for Thermo- Physical Property Measurements of Molten Materials on Earth and in Space
Themophysical properties of high temperature molten materials are mczsured using an electrostatic levitator in combination with several diagnostic devices. An objective of this study is to find the limitation of the earth-based measurements in order to evaluate the necessity of similar measurements in space. It is found that the hemispherical total emissivity, specific heat, specific volume, de...
متن کاملRelation between self-diffusion and viscosity in dense liquids: new experimental results from electrostatic levitation.
By using the technique of electrostatic levitation, the Ni self-diffusion, density, and viscosity of liquid Zr(64)Ni(36) have been measured in situ with high precision and accuracy. The inverse of the viscosity, η, measured via the oscillating drop technique, and the self-diffusion coefficient D, obtained from quasielastic neutron scattering experiments, exhibit the same temperature dependence ...
متن کاملDirect injection of methane in advanced propulsion systems: effects of thermodynamic conditions
The direct injection of gaseous fuels involves the presence of under-expanded jets due to the high pressure-ratios and the strong gas compressibility. Understanding the physical development of such processes is essential for developing Direct Injection (DI) devices suitable for application in internal combustion engines fueled by methane or hydrogen. In this work a coupled experimental-numerica...
