Aerodynamic Design of the Hyperloop Concept

Aerodynamic Design of the Hyperloop ConceptMax M. J. Opgenoord and Philip C. Caplan Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, MA, 02139 The Hyperloop is a ground-based transportation system Concept slated to drasticallyreduce travel times over medium range distances, for example between San Francisco andLos Angeles. This paper discusses Aerodynamic Design considerations for the Hyperlooppod. A Hyperloop capsule travels in an unconventional flow regime very low Reynoldsnumbers with high Mach numbers which brings with it unique challenges.

The overall design of this team’s Hyperloop pod won the design competition of the SpaceX Hyperloop Competition in January 2016. Nomenclature A Reference area Apod Frontal area of pod Atube Cross-sectional area of tube CD Drag coe cient Cp Pressure coe cient H Shape parameter Kn Knudsen number
