摘要
自水下无人航行器出现以来,关于其发电和储能系统的研究就从未停止.对适合长期部署的自供电水下无人航行器的需求一直在增长,需进一步研究小规模海洋梯度能源系统.本文综述了利用海洋热能(海水温差、相变材料和热电发生器)和海洋环境能(风能、太阳能和波浪能)的发电技术,总结其优缺点.同时,介绍目前及未来用于水下无人航行器的储能电池,包括锂电池、燃料电池、半燃料电池等.最后,对水下无人航行器电池的未来发展方向进行讨论,为其发电及储能技术发展提供一定参考.
Abstract
Since the invention of unmanned underwater vehicles(UUV),research on its power generation and energy storage systems has never stop.The growing demand for self-powered UUV suitable for long-term deployment requires fur-ther research into small-scale ocean gradient energy systems.In this paper,we review the advantages and disadvantages of power generation technologies utilizing ocean thermal energy(ocean thermal energy conversion,phase change materials,and thermoelectric generator)and ocean environmental energy(wind,solar,and wave energy).At the same time,the energy stor-age batteries for UUV,including lithium batteries,fuel cells,and semi-fuel cells,are introduced.Finally,the future develop-ment directions of UUV batteries are discussed,in order to provide certain guidance for the development of power genera-tion and energy storage technology.
