Application Status and Development Trend of Battery for Deep Submergence Rescue Vehicles

Abstract

Submarines have extremely strong operational capability and deterrence and play an irreplaceable role in war, which have been highly valued by all countries. However, the operational characteristics of submarines also reflect that once an accident occurs, rescue will be difficult. Among various types of rescue equipment, deep submergence rescue vehicle (DSRV) have the advantages of flexible operation and a large number of rescuers, which is an efficient rescue technology. Therefore, the navies of various countries have developed multiple types of DSRVs for submarine crash rescue. DSRVs mainly rely on the battery to provide energy under water. Therefore, the performance of the battery also determines that of the DSRV to a certain extent. This paper mainly reviewed the application status of batteries for various types of DSRVs worldwide, analyzed the current application status, key technologies, and research foundations of battery technology for DSRVs, and predicted future development trends of battery technology applied for DSRVs, so as to provide a reference for the development of batteries for DSRVs in the future.
