Submarine Storage Batteries; Charging Procedure for Wartime

Abstract

This report comprises a discussion of the factors affecting the choice of a charging procedure for use in charging submarine storage batteries in wartime. The charging procedure which is considered best is the present standard Bureau charge. The principal recommendation in this report is that some designated submarine, such as one about to be decommissioned, be used to study in detail wartime charging procedure by raising the gravity of its main storage battery and operating it under conditions simulating those anticipated in time of war.
