This paper shows added mass and inertia can be acquired from the pure heaving motion and pure pitching motion respectively. A Vertical Planar Motion Mechanism (VPMM) test for the spheroid-type Unmanned Underwater Vehicle (UUV) was compared with a theoretical calculation and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) analysis in this paper. The VPMM test has been carried out at a towing tank with specially manufactured equipment. The linear equations of motion on the vertical plane were considered for theoretical calculation, and CFD results were obtained by commercial CFD package. The VPMM test results show good agreement with theoretical calculations and the CFD results, so that the applicability of the VPMM equipment for an underwater vehicle can be verified with a sufficient accuracy.

A vertical planar motion mechanism(VPMM) test was used to increase the prediction accuracy for the maneuverability of an underwater glider model. To improve the accuracy of the linear hydrodynamic coefficients, the analysis techniques of a pure heave test and pure pitch test were developed and confirmed. In this study, the added mass and damping coefficient were measured using a VPMM test. The VPMM equipment provided pure heaving and pitching motions to the underwater glider model and acquired the forces and moments using load cells. As a result, the hydrodynamic coefficients of the underwater glider could be acquired after a Fourier analysis of the forces and moments. Finally, a motion control simulation was performed for the glider control system, and the results are presented.

최근 들어 전 세계적으로 항공모함과 첨단 구축함 등 대규모의 최신 함정위주의 해상전력을 강화하는 상황에서 잠수함의 중요성이 더욱 부각되고 있다. 이에 따른 잠수함의 조종성능 향상을 위한 정밀한 동유체력 미계수 값이 요구된다. 본 논문에서는 VPMM(Vertical Planar Motion Mechanism) 실험을 위하여 연직 강제 동요시험(VPMM)장비를 이용하였고, 이를 통해 동유체력을 측정하였다. 심도, 주기, 속도 등을 변화시키며 다양한 환경에서 실험을 실시하였다. 잠수함 모형을 속도 U로 예인하면서 동시에 순수 상하동요(Pure heave), 순수 종동요(Pure pitch) 운동을 각각 주었고, 이때 부가되는 힘과 모멘트를 잠수함 모형의 선수 선미 부분에 장착된 로드셀을 이용하여 각각 획득하였다. 그 결과, 푸리에 해석을 통한 잠수함 모형의 선형 유체력 미계수들을 추정할 수 있었다.

The present study aims to improve the accuracy of the maneuvering simulations based on captive model test results. To derive the hydrodynamic coefficients in a self-propelled condition, a mathematical maneuvering model using a whole vehicle model was established. Captive model tests were carried out using the Vertical Planar Motion Mechanism (VPMM) equipment. A motor controller was used to control the constant propeller revolution rate during pure motion tests. The resistance tests, self-propulsion tests, static drift tests, and VPMM tests were performed in the towing tank of Seoul National University. When the vertical drift angle changes, the gravity load on the sensors were changed. The hydrodynamic forces were deduced by subtracting the gravity load from the measured forces. The hydrodynamic coefficients were calculated using the least-square method. The simulation of the turning circle test was compared with the free-running model test result, and the error of the turning radius was 8.3 % compared to the free-running model test.

최근 들어 전 세계적으로 항공모함과 첨단 구축함 등 대규모의 최신 함정위주의 해상전력을 강화하는 상황에서 잠수함의 중요성이 더욱 부각되고 있다. 이에 따른 잠수함의 운동조종을 위한 정밀한 동유체력 미계수 값이 운동방정식에서 요구된다. 수직면 평면운동시험(VPMM)장비를 이용한 동유체력을 측정하였다. 심도를 변화하면서 잠수함 모형에 상하요, 종요 운동을 각각 주었고, 이를 로드셀을 이용하여 힘과 모멘트를 각각 획득 하였다. 그 결과, 푸리에 해석을 통한 수중잠수함 모형의 동유체력 계수를 얻었다.
