Analysis of Characteristics on a Compressed Air Power System Generating Supercavitation Drag Reduction for Underwater Vehicles

An unmanned underwater vehicle (UUV) powered by a compressed air power system is proposed to address challenges for battery/motor-powered vehicles under high-speed navigation, long endurance, and high mobility. These vehicles actively utilize supercavitation drag reduction by the exhausted gas from...
