Research on a New Buoyancy Driven System for Underwater Glider

A new type of electro-hydraulic buoyancy regulation system was presented in this paper, used for driving the underwater glider. In order to verify performance of the system, according to its physical properties, the simulation model was established, and simulation experiment for the system was accomplished by means of EASY5 software. The simulation results show that the system has a good dynamic characteristic and stability, and meets the expected design requirements. The simulation experiment provides valuable basis for the development of the physical system
