CFD analysis of human powered submarine to minimize drag

This paper deals with finding the optimum fineness ratio, i.e. ratio of length to maximum diameter, of human-powered submarine of different shapes to reduce the drag force on the body using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) analysis. These types of submarines are used in events like ISR and eISR. T...
