New indigenization in submarine technologies
Turkey's first indigenous submarine technologies covered by water spectrum measurement device, Defense Technologies Engineering and Trade Inc. (STM) and Bahçeşehir University (BAU) was developed as a result of cooperation.
According to the information obtained by the AA reporter, a new product for submarine technologies has been localized in cooperation with the university-industry.
The first domestic production in the area "to analyze the Water Absorption A Train Under Water Analyzer", will strengthen Turkey's hand in submarine technology. STM and the UAE in cooperation with the disclosed device, BAI Innovation and Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey by the Consulting, Technology and Innovation Funding Programs Directorate has developed and produced within the scope of Project 1501.
It will provide support for the recently increased activity in Turkey's territorial waters developments, but also to the use of water in submarines and research vessels to reduce external dependency in making the six stages analysis.
The device, which will measure in the hydrographic area, will also be used instead of "CTD probes" (depth-based sound velocity calculations), which are integrated into research ships and submarine systems. The prominent features of the device are that it can make instant measurements at a depth of 1500 meters from existing products, it differs in terms of optical conductivity and can be used instead of imported CTD probes used in existing submarine platforms.
It will also contribute to scientific research
Underwater Optical Spectrum Device, next to its contribution to offer to the defense industry can perform scientific research in Turkey, oceanography and hydrography area offers a measurement system. The difference of the device from similar systems in the world is that it measures the optical conductivity of water in real time depending on the wavelength. In the measurements made with the Underwater Optical Spectrum Device, besides the optical conductivity of the water, salinity, temperature and pressure values at different depth levels can be obtained. These data allow the calculation of many hydrographic information such as hydrocarbon distribution, speed of sound in water and water quality.
The most common operational use of this device, known as the CTD probe, is in submarine ships. The device and the data it measures are of critical importance in the submarine's tactical and operational field applications.
The device was licensed to STM in order to provide the necessary engineering and field expertise to carry out sales and marketing activities after production, and for assembly and integration into after-sales submarine platforms.
