Integrated full electric propulsion systems are being introduced across both civil and military marine sectors. Standard power system analysis packages cover electrical and electromagnetic components but have limited models of mechanical subsystems and their controllers. Hence, electromechanical system interactions between the prime movers, power network, and driven loads are poorly understood. This...
By providing a common power supply to both the propulsion and service loads on ships, integrated full electric propulsion (IFEP) offers benefits of increased design flexibility and reduced running costs. Whilst presenting power system challenges commonly seen in land based grid systems, the prevalence of power electronics, high power density, and the significance of individual loads (such as propulsion...
This paper reports on the simulation of a marine Integrated Electric Full Electric Propulsion (IFEP) system to assess its ability to absorb variations in propulsion or auxiliary load without excessive degradation of the electrical supply quality or imposing excessive demands on the prime movers. IFEP systems are expected to yield economic benefits to ship operators by permitting the capacity of ship...
Integrated full electric propulsion (IFEP) currently provides advantages for both the commercial and naval shipping industries. However, in order to realise the full potential of this concept research into all aspects of IFEP system design and operation is necessary, particularly for naval applications where the operational requirements are more stringent and the need to mitigate the risk associated...
