When it comes to design and acquire underwater vehicles such as a submarine and a torpedo according to the process of SBA(Simulation Based Acquisition)/SBD(Simulation Based Design), it is necessary to predict the performance of interest precisely and to perform the test over and over again using the M&S(Modeling and Simulation) of the engineering and the engagement level. In this paper, we research the DEVS(Discrete Event System Specification) and DTSS(Discrete Time System Specification) formalism based standard model architecture for the underwater vehicle which can support both the heterogeneous level of the M&S(Engineering/Engagement) and the different system of the M&S(Discrete Event System and Discrete Time System). To validate this standard modeling architecture, we apply it to the submarine normal diving simulation.

Conventionally, the static angle of attack and static elevator tests are carried out separately to estimate hydrodynamic stability derivatives of underwater vehicles. However, it is difficult to verify the interaction between the angle of attack and elevator angle in such cases. In this study, we perform a static elevator with angle of attack test where both the angle of attack and elevator angle are varied simultaneously. The experimental results show that the angle of attack has an influence on the elevator control force and that this tendency is dependent on the sense in which the angle of attack and elevator angle are varied. We predict level flight performance using hydrodynamic derivatives estimated through this experiment. The predictions considering the effect of angle of attack show good agreement with trials conducted in the open sea.

The hydrodynamic coefficients estimation problem is important to develop an underwater vehicle and design a controller for it. In this paper, an identification theory, the Extended Kalman Filter, is applied to this parameter estimation problem. In the case that a process noise is not used, all of the parameters are almost exactly converged to the true values respectively. When a process noise is used, all of the parameters are converged to the true values, too, although some parameter estimates are slightly biased. The comparisons of the two trajectories between those generated by the true parameters and those by the estimated parameters show that the parameter estimation problem is well-solved.

Most of the numerical and experimental studies on supercavitating flows are focused on the cavitator only. However, the partial cavity growing into the supercavity is affected by the shape of the body placed behind the cavitator. In this paper, we develope a numerical method which is based on the boundary element method to predict supercavitating flow around three-dimensional axisymmetric bodies. We estimate the influence of the body shape on the supercavity growth. Here, we consider various parameters of the body such as cavitator shape, shoulder length and body diameter, and compare the results with the case of the cavitator only. In summary, it is found that the body may impede the cavity growth, the shoulder mainly affects the cavity length, and the supercavity occurring in the cone type cavitator is strongly influenced rather than that of the disk type cavitator.

In recent years, the maturity of the technology for a high speed underwater vehicle using supercavitation increase, it is entering the stage of applied research for practical use. In this study, hydrodynamic performance of the supercavitating object was evaluated by using a Viscous-Potential based Boundary Element Method(VP-BEM). 27 models with different shape parameters such as body diameter, length and fore-body shape were considered. The process of the supercavity development of each model was simulated, and drag generated according to operating conditions such as changes in water depth was analyzed.

As a propellant of a high speed underwater vehicle, the hydro-reactive solid metal particles using seawater as a oxidizer maximizes its specific impulse when the solid metal particles and the seawater are uniformly mixed in the combustion chamber. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of injector geometry on the particle distribution of similarity point of view. For the purpose of this similarity of the mean velocity and particle number density along the radial direction was measured by Particle Image Velocimetry(PIV).

본 논문에서는 수중익 버블 캐비테이션과 날개 끝 볼텍스 캐비테이션의 거동 및 소음을 Eulerian-Lagrangian 기법을 이용하여 수치적으로 해석하였다. Eulerian-Lagrangian 기법은 캐비테이션 버블이 유동장에 미치는 영향이 거의 없다는 가정하에 유동장과 캐비테이션 거동을 일방으로 연계하여 해석하는 방식이다. 수중익 버블 캐비테이션 해석을 위한 유동장은 비압축성 RAMS 방정식을 해석하여 구하고 날개 끝 볼텍스 캐비테이션 유동장은 일반적 CFD 기법의 큰 수치 소산으로 그 특성이 잘 나타나지 않으므로 Sculley 볼텍스 모델을 이용하여 해석한다. 해석한 유동장 정보를 입력치로 하고 버블의 지배 방정식인 Rayleigh-Plesset 방정식과 Newton의 제2법칙에 근거한 궤적 방정식을 연계하여 캐비테이션의 성장-붕괴와 운동을 예측한다. 계산된 거동 정보를 이용하여 버블 캐비테이션과 날개 끝 볼텍스 캐비테이션의 소음을 예측하였다. 본 연구는 수중 운동체에서 발생하는 캐비테이션의 거동과 소음의 특성을 파악하고 그에 따른 대비책을 마련하는 기본 연구로서 활용할 수 있을 것이다.

Horn rudders or flap rudders with a gap between forward and after part are used for effective steering of a ship or a submerged body. It is necessary to analyze the effect of a gap since it affects the performance of rudders. In this paper, an equation to calculate the lift acting on a two-dimensional flap rudder in uniform flow is derived by using the thin hydrofoil theory and the analytic solution of viscous flow in a channel formed by two coaxial cylindrical walls to which a pressure gradient is applied.
