Book Description
Originally printed in 1946, The Fleet Type Submarine series of technical manuals remains unparalleled. Contained in its pages and those of the companion texts are descriptions of every operating component aboard a fleet boat. Hydraulic Systems, Navpers 16169, describes the system that powers the submarine¿s steering mechanism and diving planes. It is also a richly- illustrated textbook that discusses hydraulic forces and their methods of employment. It includes a detailed description of the operation, installation, and repair of various parts, and outlines common problems and remedies. Originally classified ¿Restricted¿, this book was recently declassified and is here reprinted in book form. Some illustrations have been slightly reformatted, and color plates are reproduced in black and white. Care has been taken to preserve the integrity of the text.

Book Description
A successful search was made for petroleum-base hydraulic fluids with rust-inhibiting qualities adequate to prevent rusting in submarine hydraulic systems contaminated with seawater. Fluids of two types were found with considerably greater rust-inhibiting ability than currently used Navy hydraulic fluids. The type of fluid giving the better rust inhibition deviated from present hydraulic fluid specification requirements in that it emulsified readily with contaminating seawater, whereas the second type did not. Other necessary properties of both fluid types were satisfactory. Feasibility of using the emulsifying-type fluid in submarine hydraulic systems was shown by 1000 hr of satisfactory operation using a hydraulic system mock-up with full scale submarine system components in the presence of 10% sea-water contamination. Technical specification requirements for this type fluid were drawn up.

Book Description
Although hydraulic fluids are generally considered to be low flammable liquids, it is known that they can be highly flammable and even explosive in the atomized state. Because submarine hydraulic systems operate at high pressures, it is possible that mists could be produced in the event of a system leak. Large-scale tests were conducted aboard the ex-USS Shadwell test platform, under realistic temperature and pressure conditions, to evaluate the magnitude of the hazards. It was found that a significant fire and explosion potential does exist under conditions typical of normal hydraulic system operations.

Book Description
This ¿Basic Enlisted Submarine Text¿ was originally published by the U.S. Navy in 1963. A revision of ¿The Fleet Type Submarine¿, a basic reference book for the crews of WWII-era fleet boats, this book also includes information about nuclear propulsion ¿ with the USS Skipjack, SS(N)585 used for illustrative purposes. The book contains a brief history of the submarine, and features numerous diagrams and photographs. It offers definitions of submarine components and terminology, and provides technical descriptions of various machinery and sub-systems such as the snorkel, ballast tanks, ventilation, trim and steering.

Book Description
A mathematical model was developed to include the effects in the submarine hydraulic system dynamic performance analysis. The project was undertaken in an effort to demonstrate the necessity of coupling the entire hydraulic power network for an accurate analysis of any of the subsystems rather than the current practice of treating a component loop as an isolated system. It was intended that the line model could be coupled with individual elements in modular computer programs to facilitate design and alteration decisions. The line model was developed and coupled with a submarine driving-system servo-loop in order to demonstrate the above premises. However, due to programming difficulties additional work is necessary to successfully complete the analysis. (Author).
