Application of Uniform Design Method to Design of Torpedo’s Wake Homing Test

The factors influencing torpedo wake homing are analyzed to select the test design factors, the level of each factor of torpedo wake homing test is set up, and the design of torpedo wake homing test is carried out by the uniform design method. Compared with the previous design schemes with subjective randomness in selection of factors, level setting and combination, the uniform design method is more objective and rational, so the uniform dispersion of test points is greatly improved. Also, the uniform design method can significantly reduce, the test samples without reducing test effect compared with the comprehensive test design and the orthogonal design method, hence obvious economic benefit, high feasibility, and easy implementation can be achieved. This research may provide a reference for the design optimization of torpedo acoustic homing test.
