Abstract

In this paper, we review modern developments of air-independent power plants (AIPPs) for the world submarine fleet. Equipping nonnuclear submarines with such plants is shown to be the main trend in modern shipbuilding. It can be predicted that submarines with AIPPs will almost completely occupy this niche of world shipbuilding by 2030. The most widespread at present are AIPPs based on fuel cells and Stirling engines. In the near future, electrochemical generators with better energy efficiency (power, efficiency) and stealth indicators (noise, thermal fields, and other unmasking factors) will remain the main types of AIPPs. The level of technology that has been achieved allows the creation of promising power plants based on solid-oxide fuel cells that will have significant advantages over diesel generators, which opens up prospects for their use in surface and submarine shipbuilding, in civil shipbuilding, and in other types of vehicles.

摘要

在本文中，我们回顾了世界潜艇舰队的独立于空气的发电厂（AIPP）的现代发展。向无核潜艇装备这种装置被证明是现代造船业的主要趋势。可以预见，到2030年，配备AIPP的潜艇将几乎完全占据这一世界造船业的利基地位。目前最广泛的是基于燃料电池和斯特林发动机的AIPP。在不久的将来，具有更高能效（功率，效率）和隐身指标（噪声，热场和其他非遮盖因素）的电化学发生器将仍然是AIPP的主要类型。已达到的技术水平允许建立基于固体氧化物燃料电池的有前途的发电厂，与柴油发电机相比，这将具有显着的优势，
