What is BUO technology ?

BUO represents :

1) B :- below .

2) U :- upper .

3) O :- over .

Buoyancy

• Buoyancy is an upward acting force exerted by a fluid, that opposes an object’s weight

• Again ,BUO also means ‘buoyancy’ which means , the tendency of the tendency of a fluid to uplift the a fluid to uplift the body when it is body when it is submerged . submerged .

Engine of BUO vehicle

• The engine used here will be a gas jet turbine engine .

• They have three parts:1. Compressor 2. Combustion

area3.Turbine

Advantages of Jet Engines

• Gas turbine engines have a great power-to-weight ratio compared to reciprocating engine

• Gas turbine engines are smaller than their reciprocating counterparts of the same power.

Disadvantages of jet engine

• They are expensive

• Designing and manufacturing gas turbines is a tough problem

• Tend to use more fuel when they are idling, and they prefer a constant rather than a fluctuating load.

Changes in its engine mechanism

When in air (i.e. upper water)

When over water

When below water

• When in water the engine will work as a hybrid engine in parallel with a torpedo engine .

• While in water in addition to the gas turbine engine retractable propellers can be used

Other parallel technologies to be used

1. Torpedo engine

2. Air cushioning

For the symmetrical aerofoil to create the required lift, the craft must fly nose-up in the air and nose- down in the air

The future applications :

In future it can be used as a part of a defense warheads .

Because of its stability it has got a perfect bomb dropping condition of perfect aim position.

It can carry the air to air missile , water to air missile , depth chargers and nuclear missiles .
