  • A diesel submarine while moving underwater is usually provided driving power through batteries.
  • While a diesel engine can be used to generate electricity on board the submarine, the actual power used to drive the propellers while the submarine is submerged usually comes from batteries.
  • The submarine's diesel engine can be used to recharge the batteries when the submarine is on the surface, but the engine cannot be used to power the propellers directly while the submarine is submerged.
  • Submarines use batteries to power the electric motors that drive the propellers when the submarine is submerged.
  • These batteries are usually rechargeable and can be recharged by the submarine's diesel engine or by an auxiliary power source when the submarine is on the surface.
