An Approach for Operation Depth Reduction of an Underwater Glider Propelled by Ocean Thermal Energy

نویسندگان

چکیده مقاله:

The underwater Gliders are a kind of autonomous vehicles that have a special role in ocean surveys which demand continuous monitoring and long endurance. Because of low energy consumption and long endurance, these vehicles are favorite for these missions. Among this, a type of gliders can harvest ocean thermal energy, causing significant endurance increase. These vehicles need at least 680 meters sea depth to operate their propulsion system. In this paper, by analyzing a propulsion system of a typical glider, heat transfer and its operation depth is assessed. For decreased operational depth, an approach is presented for possibility of using this technology in shallower seas, which provides the utilization of this type of gliders at wider range of the Gulf of Oman.

An Autonomous Underwater Vehicle as an Underwater Glider and Its Depth Control

Abstract: To provide a conventional autonomous underwater vehicle with gliding capability, we assume a moving battery and a buoyancy bag installed in a torpedo shaped autonomous underwater vehicle. We develop a mathematical model for the underwater vehicle and derive a stable gliding condition for it. Then an LQR controller is designed to control the zigzag depth of the vehicle, where the deriv...

Terrain-aided Navigation for an Underwater Glider

A terrain-aided navigation method for an underwater glider is proposed that is suitable for use in ice-covered regions or areas with heavy ship traffic where the glider may not be able to surface for GPS location updates. The algorithm is based on a jittered bootstrap algorithm, which is a type of particle filter that makes use of the vehicle’s dead-reckoned navigation solution, onboard altimet...
