This Train Will Break Records Fastest?

Transportation on the tracks of the fastest in the world currently held by China's Shanghai Maglev trains at speeds up to 431 km per hour . Now they have to be ready to compete . Neighboring countries , Japan does not want to lose . Country is preparing to break the shoguns world record in the field of railways .

500 miles per hour ! This is the dream of Japan creates world's fastest train . Compare with Formula 1 sports car that only a maximum of 412 km per hour . Reporting from Live Science , Japan is starting to build a track for the train . The plan , the fastest trains will deliver passengers from Tokyo to Nagoya in 7 minutes.

maglev - MLX01 , the prototype of the fastest trains in the world

Trains in China and Japan could have super speed because it was built with the technology of magnetic levitation ( maglev ) . Before we know more about the maglev , decent known fact China has developed the fastest train others . Manufacturing started in the year 2010 , electric trains have predicted CRH380A name can reach speeds of 302 miles per hour , or the equivalent of 486 miles per hour . Despite the fact that during operation , CRH380A will only reach a maximum speed of around 236 miles per hour , or about 380 miles per hour .

Prior to China so the euphoria develops fast trains , is actually in the Guinness World Records , the fastest electric trains is held by L0 prototype Maglev trains made ​​in Japan , JR - Maglev MLX01 . When tested in 2003 , the power reaches the maximum rate of 361 miles per hour , or the equivalent of 581 miles per hour .

In the second position , perched train that has the name of the French TGV ( Train à Grande Vitesse ) . The trains have a maximum speed of 357.2 miles per hour , or about 574.9 miles per hour .

Maglev trains
Maglev , magnetically levitated trains acronym of which is loosely translated as floating trains magnetically , or simply we call magnetic train . The principle of this train is to utilize magnetic lift force on the rails so that the lifted slightly upward , then the thrust generated by the induction motor .

Maglev trains float above approximately 10mm magnetic tracks . The push forward is done through the interaction between the magnetic rail with induction machine that also produces a magnetic field inside the train .

So , what positive and negative sides of the maglev technology ? The principal advantage of this train is its ability to float above the rails , so it does not cause friction . Consequently , theoretically there will be no replacement rail or train wheels because no one will ever wear ( maintenance costs can be saved ) . Other side benefits is no frictional resistance force . Style air resistance of course is still there . For the more developed Maglev train more aerodynamic .

Due to the shape and speed of the train is fantastic , the noise ( sound ) generated when the train is moving about the same as a jet plane , and in the account is more intrusive than conventional trains . A study proves the sound generated by the conventional train carriage with ordinary meglev more about 5dB noise is 78 % of it . Another deficiency of this train is on the tracks procurement especially costly investment .
