The advent of pulsed-power loads puts a large amount of stress on ship power systems. Naval applications of pulsed-power loads include energy weapons and radars which often demand more power than what is available through the local, dedicated generation. Incorporating loads and sources in a single power system proves beneficial for these systems; however, generators cannot be the only source due to...
The integration of energy storage devices is essential to handle the high-power ramp-rate loads in all-electric ships. This paper presents a novel predictive control method to manage the energy flow among distributed resources including generators and a bulk energy storage. The system objective, which guarantees the high-power ramp-rate operation of pulsed power load, will be formulated based on the...
Pulsed power loads present a difficult scenario for ship power systems to handle. Loads such as radar or energy weapons often demand a large amount of power in a short amount of time. This creates issues for the generators that supply the power to these loads due to the ramp rate constraints. By incorporating energy storage and combining the energy producers and users into a single power system, the...
Automated power and energy management systems (APEMS) are unifying control systems that coordinate individual power system components and present appropriate information to system operators. This paper presents ongoing work to establish a methodology and framework for evaluating such systems. As the design space offers many degrees of freedom including functional decomposition, choice of sensors,...
