Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) Propulsion System Analysis and Optimization
… for autonomous underwater vehicles (AUV's) that have specific mission scenarios is the propulsive efficiency. The propulsive efficiency affects the amount of power storage required to achieve a specific mission. As the efficiency increases the volume of energy being stored decreases. …
