Attitude Stability Analysis of Expendable BathyThermograph

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this paper, the hydrodynamic properties of expendable bathy thermograph (XBT) is analyzed and got the changes of lift coefficient and drag coefficient with the attack angles change. We research the pressure field profile outside of XBT with different attack angles and analyze the reasons which can affect the stability of XBT. The research can provide reference for further optimization of the probe structure and stability test of XBT.
