Survey of Continuous Sources of Electrical Power for Under-Ice Propulsion of Small Submersibles. Part II. New High Energy Density Systems,

Abstract

New, high energy density electrochemical systems are discussed from the point of view of meeting the forecast electrical requirements for the SDL-1 submersible in the 1980-90 time frame. Three main categories of systems are considered; namely, aqueous, metal/oxygen, and high temperature. Since most new high energy density systems are still in the conceptual stage, with many engineering problems yet to be resolved, the technical and economic merits are reviewed mainly in general terms. The systems with the best near and long term development potential are critically examined and assessed. (Author)
