ENERGY SYSTEMS OF EXTENDED ENDURANCE IN THE 1-100 KILOWATT RANGE FOR UNDERSEA APPLICATIONS.

Abstract

A report is given on the state of technology of energy systems that may have undersea applications by a select panel. The pertinent features of the most promising among electrochemical and nuclear sources, as well as dynamic conversion and cable transmission systems are discussed in some detail. Related technologies such as hydrogen-oxygen supply systems and heat transfer technology are also summarized. The nature, magnitude and priority of effort required for the Navy to have available several alternatives for meeting its future needs is also detailed. (Author)
