Abstract:

Focusing on hydrodynamic performance and maneuverability of AUV based on vector thruster， the hydrodynamic forces of AUV with vectored thruster is calculated in this paper；then the maneuverability of vectored thruster in horizontal turning circle is assessed. A vectored thruster prototype has been manufactured for maneuvering verification at the lake. The theoretical calculation and test data show that vectored thruster has very good low-speed maneuverability. This research has provided theoretical and technical basis for the application of vectored thruster in AUV.
