Abstract

This research focuses on the development of a self-energizing underwater vehicle that utilizes wave energy to power its circuit. The objective of the research work is to demonstrate the feasibility of harnessing renewable energy sources in an underwater environment and showcase the potential for sustainable power generation. To ensure the structural integrity of the vehicle under water, rigorous simulation analysis has been conducted using ANSYS software. The hull design has undergone thorough scrutiny to determine its ability to withstand water pressure at depths of up to 5 meters. The simulation results confirm that the submarine's hull design is robust and capable of withstanding the expected operating conditions. This study holds great significance in the field of marine engineering as it explores alternative energy sources for underwater applications. By harnessing wave energy, this work contributes to the development of sustainable technologies that can potentially revolutionize underwater operations. The use of renewable energy sources minimizes environmental impact and reduces reliance on traditional power sources. Throughout this research, challenges were encountered, including optimizing the turbine system efficiency, ensuring reliable power transfer, and maintaining the structural integrity of the submarine. These challenges were addressed through careful design considerations and iterative improvements. The knowledge gained from this study can be applied to various underwater applications such as marine exploration, environmental monitoring, and data collection. Future research and development should focus on enhancing the turbine design, integrating advanced power management systems, and conducting field tests to validate the system's performance in real-world-scenarios.
