| Summary: | To study the influence of launch conditions and wave interference on the stability of submersible aerial vehicles at the water–air interface, a coupling model for water-exit motion of submersible aerial vehicles was established by using the RNG k-ε turbulence model and VOF method. The water-exit processes of submersible aerial vehicles under different initial inclination angles and velocities were numerically simulated and the effects of initial inclination angle and velocity on the water-exit motion of submersible aerial vehicles were obtained. Based on the response surface function theory, a mathematical model for the motion stability of submersible aerial vehicles at the water–air interface was established, so that the submersible aerial vehicle’s pitch angle and velocity at the end of vehicle’s water-exit process, corresponding to any initial inclination angle and velocity, can be solved. The deviation between the simulated calculation result and the established fitting function model result was 2.7%. The minimum water-exit velocity of submarine aerial vehicles should be greater than 10.8 m/s. The research provides technical support for the trans-media motion stability analysis and hydrodynamic performance design of the submersible aerial vehicle.
