HIGH-SPEED TRANSPORT MODULE OF TRANSPORT SYSTEM Russian patent published in 2003 - IPC

FIELD: transport engineering. SUBSTANCE: invention is designed for use at building transport vehicles featuring high aerodynamic characteristics. Proposed high-speed transport module contains three similar streamlined bodies with mating sphere-like front, drop-like middle and cone-line rear parts. Rear cone-like part of body is made with reversed curvature generatrix. To reduced drag coefficient and increase dynamic stability, definite relationships between body member dimensions and their form are provided. Module makes it possible to improved power characteristics of transport system at high dynamic stability. EFFECT: improved characteristics of transport system. 12 cl, 20 dwg
