基于国产第一代Argo浮标的结构优化设计

Structural Optimized Design for the First Generation of Domestic Argo Floats

Argo浮标即自沉浮式剖面探测浮标,长期工作在海上自动沉浮,专用于海洋次表层温度、盐度和深度的剖面测量。我国国产第一代Argo浮标由于结构布局引起浮标重心偏高、偏离中心线、电池容量小等问题,导致浮标在海面漂浮时稳定性降低,探测周期不及国外最新浮标。针对以上问题,文中主要介绍了Argo浮标结构的形状优化设计、相关计算和实验验证。

Argo Floats, also called self-floating profiling floats, are designed for long-term deployment in the marine environment, specialized for automatic profiling measurement of ocean subsurface temperature, salinity and depth. The first generation of domestic Argo floats needs technological upgrading for resolving a series of problems due to faults in the structural arrangement of floats, including higher center of gravity, deviation from the center line of the floats, and small battery capacity, which caused the Argo floats to have lower stability and detection cycle compared with overseas novel Argo floats. In view of the above problems, this paper mainly introduces the structural optimized design of the Argo floats, calculation method and relative experimental verification.
