PROBLBHSOF SPEED
New Type Streamline Cars
Predicted for Rail and
Interurban Use.
One drop of falling water is
showing engineers and scientists
how to revolutionize the shape of
trains, locomotives, interurban
cars and other high speed vehicles.
That drop of water helped them
to work out the present designs
for Zeppelins, for airplane wings,
for racing automobiles. The same
principles are now being applied
to train design, and, recent an
nouncements by Dr. Oscar G. Tiet
jens of a national manufacturing
company Indicate that the dawn of
a new day in locomotive and coach
construction Is about to break.
Demands for higher speed have
been growing more and more in
sistent. Particularly in this coun
try, with Its long distances and
its speed minded population, any
improvement in the speed of
transportation would mean a real
help. Therefore when Dr. Tietjens
joined the staff of the company he
soon realized the great possibili
ties of applying aerodynamics to

the extremely Important field of
transportation.
Wind Tunnel Used.
More than a year ago the work
was started by building a wind
tunnel for testing models of pres
ent type trains as well as those of
the streamline pattern. Dr. Tiet
jens" background of experience in
the development of aircraft and In
racing car designs, gave him much
valuable data and knowledge of
the problems to be encountered.
The special work In aerodynamics,
which had won for him the degree
of doctor . of philosophy from the
University of Gocttingen and ex
perience during more than six
years as an associate of Dr. L.
Prandtl had given him a thoro
working knowledge of the princi
ples of air resistance.
Former tests of other types of
equipment prompted his belief
that total train resistance could
be reduced one-half and wind re
sistance to one-third for certain
types of rail equipment at high
speeds. If this should be accom
plished, the necessary speeds could
be obtained with less power con
sumption and better transporta
tion service would then be avail
able at a lower operating cost.
Train resistance is made up of

When the present type of light in
terurban car is moving forty miles
an hour wind resistance Is almost
50 percent of the total resistance.
When its speed is increased to 80
moles an hour the wind resistance
has become more than 75 percent
of the total train resistance.
In a series of tests with models
of present, type and streamline
cars in winds of varying velocities
up to 80 miles an hour, Tietjens
has worked out some startling
conclusions, and the results are be
lieved to be correct and exact to
a very close percentage.
In the case of a heavy locomo
tive and two heavy coaches,
stream line design saves 13 per
cent of the required total horse
power for a speed of 35 miles an
hour and 32 percent of the total

to tests made in the company's re

It requires 286 horsepower to
drive the present type of light in

Tests made in the company's wind
tunnel indicated that the same

sign can be driven 80 miles an
hour with only 140 horsepower,
thus saving 146 horsepower. Even

Remodeling Cars.
From these results, Tietjens con
cludes that streamlining will be
worthwhile for medium and high
speed, light interurban cars and
for heavy high speed trains.
From this entire program of
activity, it is expected that new
styles in high speed cars and
trains revolutionary In character
and appearance as well as notable
for their efficiency and economy
of operation, will be developed.
This is the age of speed and the
tests of Dr. Titjena in the com
pany's laboratories open up a new
field of thought on the possibilities
of operating trains and cars fast

creased energy or fuel require
