Abstract
Remotely operated underwater vehicles (ROVs) have been widely used in deep-sea resource exploitation and industrial engineering operations. To perform these tasks accurately in the deep-sea environment, stable motion control has become a key area of research on ROV systems, which has led to the importance of analyzing the hydrodynamic characteristic of ROVs. But a systematic methodology for analyzing the hydrodynamic characteristics of ROVs is still lacking nowadays. In this paper, systematic numerical simulation methods for analyzing hydrodynamic characteristics and shape optimization of a work-class ROV are conducted, and details of simulation procedures based on computational fluid dynamics are studied, which can be a foundation for robust controller design.
