Device for Optimizing Buoyancy Adjustment through Density Analysis by Depth in Operational Waters

This technology is a simulation-based control system that designs flight models based on underwater glider flight logs and physical configuration data. It collects environmental data (pressure, temperature, salinity) from the operational area to determine the density structure by depth, then calculates the reference density and required weight adjustments for optimal flight efficiency.

Operational inconvenience and inefficiency arise when the underwater glider must be deployed into the actual sea area to verify density structure, adjusted for weight, and redeployed every time the operational area changes.

This technology combines flight data with physical models to calculate drag coefficients, compressibility, and additional buoyancy. By analyzing environmental data (underwater pressure, temperature, salinity) to calculate the reference density suited to the specific sea area, it provides an algorithm for pre-deployment buoyancy optimization and weight adjustment calculation.

Key Features:

• Underwater glider parameter calculation unit that derives flight parameters representing movement using the glider's flight log data
• Operational area analysis unit that collects underwater pressure and temperature data to calculate density by depth in the operational area
• Reference density analysis unit that calculates the weight change required for the underwater glider to achieve the reference density
• Reference density analysis unit that sets the reference density so that the minimum density during buoyancy adjustment matches the minimum density by depth in the operational area
