the passive plow blade 60 is deeper than the fluidized trench then towing forces will be encountered thus it can be seen that the work of plowing can be apportioned between the jetter assembly 30 and the passive plow 60 the more flow issued by the jetter tool the deeper will be fluidized trench and the smaller will be the drawbar the advantage here is that power kilowatts delivered via the tow cable can be traded off with drawbar by achieving a reduction in drawbar necessary to operate the plow 10 smaller less expensive vessels may be utilized to carry out cable burial the use of smaller alternative vessels can result in a tremendous cost savings for such cable burial tasks experiments have shown that the flow rate q supplied by the pump or pumps should exceed a certain value to achieve a fluidized trench of at least width w and depth d at a plowing speed v the total jet flow should exceed approximately one half w times d times v this can be represented as where n is 0 5 in order to achieve minimum drawbar the width w and depth d of the trench should exceed the width and depth of the passive blade it would also be understood that for values less than n 0 5 that some drawbar reduction will still take place although the dimensions of the trench would be reduced also for values greater than n 0 5 it would be understood that the dimensions of the trench would increase fig1 graphically illustrates the advantages of the present invention ocean plow device 10 over the prior art as shown the ocean plow device 10 is pulled by tow vessel.
