Download or read book Feasibility and Conceptual Design Study for Towed Torpedo Emulator written by and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 41 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A study was undertaken to determine the feasibility of towing a streamlined body at various depths up to 40!m, speeds up to 20!knots, and distances of more than 250!m behind a high speed vessel. The tow-body would house a sensor package and acoustic projectors that would emulate the signature of a torpedo. In order to reduce dynamic instabilities and acoustic noise introduced by control surfaces, a tow-body 43!cm in diameter by 1.65!m long without depressor surfaces is recommended. It is also recommended that the bottom 30!m of the towcable have rigid fairings to minimize drag and strumming. A specialized winch and over-boarding sheave are required to handle the cable fairing and sustained the required loads. The system was modeled to determine geometry and cable loads at various speeds. It was found that at a tow speed of 20!knots, a tow-body in-water weight of 227!kg, a cable tension of 16.2!kN, and a cable lay-back of 273!m, are required to achieve a depth of 40!m. One area that needs further investigation is finding a vessel with sufficient size and horsepower to deploy the tow body and tow it at the desired speed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Notes on Torpedoes, Offensive and Defensive The following pages on the subject of submarine mines have been compiled from the various papers which have been drawn up, and experiments which have been made during the last three or four years in the course of instruction carried on at the School of Military Engineering, Chatham. The object in view has been to put the officers and men instructed in possession of a hand-book, to which they may refer should they, at any future time, be called upon to put in practice what they have learned. The course of instruction has now been so far perfected, in conformity with certain principles deduced from practical trial, that the system taught might at any time be adopted for actual service, and as improvements are made, they may, from time to time, be introduced. A great deal of valuable information has been derived from Captain Harding Stewards very interesting "Notes on Submarine Mines," which was perhaps the first practical work ever published on this subject. Lieutenant S. Anderson, R. E., assistant instructor in telegraphy and submarine mining, at Chatham, and Lieutenants O. Chadwick, H. Jekyll, J. T. Bucknill, R. F. Moore, and R. Y. Armstrong, R. E., who have been temporarily attached at various periods to the School of Submarine Mining, have been indefatigable in carrying on numerous experiments, with a view to perfecting our system, and to them a great deal of credit is due. Finally, we have had the benefit of the valuable series of experiments carried on, and of the information collected, by the floating obstruction committee, of which Lieutenant-Colonel Fisher, C. B., R. E., and F. Abel, esq., F. E. S., chemist to the war department, were members. These officers have, moreover, contributed personally much valuable information, of which, in carrying on the experiments of the above-mentioned committee, they had become possessed. Captain W.Dawson, R. N., late secretary to the floating obstruction committee, has very kindly looked over Chapters XIV and XV, on "Clearing Channels of Submarine Mines" and "Locomotive Torpedoes," and Commander F. Harvey, R. N., has been good enough to furnish information for the description of his sea torpedo. Commander Harvey is about to publish a book giving a description of his torpedo, in which any further details concerning it will be found.

Book excerpt: An encyclopedic study of the ship-killer par excellence—from its development to post-World War II usage. “A well-written book, lavishly illustrated.” —International Journal of Maritime History The torpedo was the greatest single game-changer in the history of naval warfare. For the first time it allowed a small, cheap torpedo-firing vessel—and by extension a small, minor navy—to threaten the largest and most powerful warships afloat.The traditional concept of seapower, based on huge fleets of expensive capital ships, required radical rethinking because of this important naval weapon. This book is a broad-ranging international history of the weapon, tracing not only its origins and technical progress down to the present day, but also its massive impact on all subsequent naval wars. Torpedo contains much new technical information that has come to light over the past thirty years and covers all of the improved capabilities of the weapon. Heavily illustrated with photos and technical drawings this is a book no enthusiast or historian can afford to miss. “The torpedo—one of the most fearsome weapons ever created by man—is well worth its own history.” —Forum Navale
