Aerodynamic Design
Aerodynamic design: A decisive factor in energy efficiency
At Bombardier, we leverage our distinctive transportation and aerospace expertise to produce groundbreaking aerodynamic designs. By using AeroEfficient, a tool developed in collaboration with Bombardier Aerospace, we were able to:
- Minimize the ZEFIRO ’s aerodynamic resistance
- Save up to 12% of the energy consumed by standard-design trains
The ZEFIRO ’s train’s unique aerodynamic design optimizes crosswind stability, aerodynamic drag and pressure pulses. Advanced aerodynamics and energy-saving technologies make it the world’s most energy-efficient VHS train.
