Underwater vehicle has been an active area of research for a long time. Design and control of such underwater vehicle is very much challenging. Here an innovative design of underwater vehicle has been proposed with an innovative placement of four ballast tanks. The dynamics behavior of heave motion has been obtained by solving the governing equation using Matlab-Simulink frame. Open loop depth control has also been achieved by proper control of water flow in and out of the ballast tanks.
