Abstract
Housing component design of floating buoy NOMAD for lake water pollution monitoring has been presented. The housing consists of a control module, solar cell modules and a drogue module. Drogue module is sail-like object capturing the drag by flow in deep zone of lake water. Thus, in designing control module, specific consider has been paid to reduce the drag by flow below the surface. Consequently, a control module prototype which employs a hemisphere housing has been designed. The induced drag is significantly decreased as compared to the former prototype case. The flow characteristics of the designed buoy should be experimentally investigated.
