  • Abstract:
  • This study offers a detailed numerical analysis and observation of a torpedo-shaped glider's behaviour in oceanic settings. Utilizing computational fluid dynamics (CFD), the study examines a glider model based on Miring profile equations. Through solving the Navier–Stokes and energy equations with specific boundary conditions, we conduct extensive numerical simulations. The research investigates how environmental factors impact the glider's hydrodynamic performance. Additionally, we assess the reliability of our numerical outcomes by employing Linear Regression for prediction, formulating mathematical equations, and utilizing Taguchi optimization to suggest an optimal design. Our design modifications aim to boost the glider's performance in varied oceanic conditions, with a special emphasis on improving drag and lift forces. This research significantly enhances our understanding of the glider's behaviour in diverse sea conditions, with simulations carried out in 2D, highlighting the pivotal role of numerical analysis in refining its performance.
