The buoyancy engine allows an underwater glider to continue this gliding process for extended periods by reversing the vertical force inducing the glide when the vehicle reaches the top and bottom depth limits of its operating envelope.
We developed a new buoyancy engine using a swashplate-type axial piston pump. This pump can work bidirectionally. Therefore, it is useful both to extrude and ...
