The development of an underwater rocket propulsion system was described in this paper. Throttle able liquid propellant and hybrid rocket propulsion systems were selected for underwater propulsion. A subscale liquid rocket combustion chamber and it's portable stand were developed and their applicability was examined. 1.5-ton.f and 1.8-ton.f hybrid rockets were developed for underwater applications. The test results indicated that the 18-ton.f hybrid rocket fully complies to the performance and underwater cruise stability requirements; thus, its development was concluded to be successfully complete.

A hybrid rocket engine capable of thrust throttling and underwater-working was developed for the underwater high-speed vehicle propulsion system. The hybrid rocket engine was designed and made by two types of ground test motor and underwater working motors. An engine performance was verified by the ground tests with the ground test motor and in the case of underwater motors the ground tests and underwater tests were performed. For the underwater operation a two-stage ignition system was adopted and a rupture disc was installed at the end of nozzle for a water-tight just before an ignition. Successful ignition and propulsion were confirmed in the underwater test with the final selected double rupture disc.

Many countries are paying efforts to the research and development of water-breathing ramjet propulsion for submersible vehicle with the super-cavitation which makes traveling at high speed in underwater possible. In this study, a conceptual design of an underwater vehicle with water-breathing ramjet was carried out. Mission profiles and operating conditions are determined by examining the operation environment. Drag is estimated based on the theories of super-cavitation and fluid mechanics. The sizing and performance analysis of the components were performed using thrust required, thrust and specific impulse of designed engine were verified.

In this paper, Underwater propulsion test of SWASH(Small Waterplane Area Single Hull) type underwater vehicle with hybrid rocket system is performed. Watertight structure is applied to prevent a combustion chamber from water, and the control logic is constructed by setting the watertight ignition sequence. As a results, It is confirmed that the ignition is stable in water, and the propulsion system works well along the configured control sequence.

A field experiment was carried out of confirm the effect of underwater sound on the luring of fish school of chub mackerel in the coast of Idousyo Island. Underwater sound that was made use of luring of fish school was pure sound and interval pure sound which the frequencies of the sound were 150Hz and 200Hz, respectively. The results of the observation of hooking and recording paper of fish finder indicate that the effect of emitting sound at 20m in the depth of water was remarkable for the luring of fish school of chub mackerel. The vertical pure sound pressure level at 150Hz and 200Hz of the water layer that was lured the fish school of chub mackerel were 140.1dB and 146.dB at 30m, 121.0dB and 126.6dB at 70m and 141.9dB and 120.5dB at 120m in the depth of water, respectively.

일반적으로 잠수함은 핵추진 잠수함과 디젤추진 잠수함으로 구분되는데, 디젤추진 잠수함은 비교적 소형으로 값이 싸고, 상황에 따라서 핵추진 잠수함보다 용이하게 운용할 수 있으므로 그 존재가치가 아직도 크다고 할수 있습니다. 특히 디젤추진 잠수함용으로 폐회로 디젤기관, 스털링기관, 연료전지, 소형 원자로등의 추진방법이 개발되어 금세기안에 실용화되리라 예상되므로 수중지속능력에 대한 디젤추진방식의 제한점은 곧 극복되리라 판단됩니다

High speed under water vehicle by using solid rocket motor, which is a natural cavitation type, was tested. The vehicle's speed and running distance was measured, and pressure sensors installed on the surface of the vehicle show pressure-time history of pressures according to the development of the supercavitation. Underwater cameras installed on the wall of the test pool recorded whole processes from the onset of the supercavitation to fully developed one. CNU-SuperCT based on 2-dimensional inviscid theoretical analysis was used to simulate the test result. In consideration of CNU-SuperCT does not include the control fins of the vehicle, simulation results agree with test results very well. Also, pictures from underwater cameras support the test results.

A natural cavitation-type high-speed underwater vehicle with solid rocket motor is tested, and its speed and running distance are measured. The outputs from pressure sensors on the surface of the vehicle reveal a pressure-time history reflecting the development of supercavitation. Underwater cameras installed on the wall of the test pool record the entire process from the onset of supercavitation to its full development. CNU-SuperCT, based on two-dimensional inviscid theoretical analysis, is used to simulate test results. Considering CNU-SuperCT does not include the control fins of the vehicle, simulation results agree with test results very well. Additionally, pictures from underwater cameras support the test results.
