Abstract:

The complexity of the electromagnetic and electromechanical coupling relationships in the Electrical Energy Power System (EEPS) poses challenges for analytical studies. To address the challenges, this paper focuses on the EEPS of future generation vessels with a cascade AC-DC-AC topology. A mathematical model for the EEPS is derived, and a parameter extraction method is provided. The complexity-accuracy relationship of each component model has been fully considered to meet the needs of real-time simulation. An electromechanical integration simulation model is constructed with a set of diesel engine and a controller, PMSM, converter, propeller, and vessel as a whole. Simulation studies of typical working conditions are carried out respectively, and the simulation results are compared with the results of ground experiment and real cruising test of the EEPS with an underwater vehicle. A good agreement between simulation model and the real EEPS has been verified by the test results. Based on the simulation platform built in this paper, the time of bench test and real cruising verification can be shortened, and the R&D costs of the EEPS can be reduced significantly.
