Minimum 150 meters.
If you stay in oone location, they will always reaquire you.
Move at 1 or 2 kts, with rudder set at 5 degrees. Go flank while he's dropping to get away from the cans. Go back to two knots or slower. The DD will need to find you again.
When you stopped, that was the mistake. He came from behind you and found you at DATUM point.
I stay at periscope depth when approaching a convoy. Surface noise makes it more difficult for DD to hear you.
If spotted by escort, I dive and go fast at PD for about a minute, then dive to about 50 meters and go quiet.
