This paper focuses on the control of bidirectional power flow in the electric shipboard power systems, especially in the Medium-Voltage Direct Current (MVDC) shipboard power system. Bidirectional power control between the main MVDC bus and the local zones can improve the energy efficiency and control flexibility of electric ship systems. However, since the MVDC system contains various nonlinear loads such as pulsed power load and radar in various subsystems, the voltage of the MVDC and the local zones varies significantly. This voltage variation affects the control performance of the bidirectional DC-DC converters as exogenous disturbances. To improve the control performance regardless of uncertainties and disturbances, this paper proposes a novel controller design method of the bidirectional DC-DC converters using $L_1$ control theory and intelligent optimization algorithm. The performance of the proposed method is verified via large-scale real-time digital simulation of a notional shipboard MVDC power system.

This paper describes a combination surge generator for carrying out performance tests on the surge protection circuits of shipboard electrical systems. Pspice simulations were performed to decide the values of the parts required and to analyze the characteristics of the generator circuitry. The surge generator fabricated can produce four of the most common surge test waveforms : the O.5i/S/100kHz Ringwave, the 1.2/50$\mu$S voltage, the 8/20$\mu$S current, and the lO/lOOOi/S voltage wave¬forms specified in ANSI Std. C62. Source impedances of the surge generator are 12$\Omega$ in the O.5$\mu$S/100kHz mode, O.5$\Omega$ in the 1.2/50$\mu$S and 8/20$\mu$S mode, and 40$\Omega$in the l0/1000$\mu$S mode, and are determined by the ratio of the maxi¬mum open - circuit voltage to the maximum short - circuit current. Experimental results show that the surge generator provides most of the outputs required for the testing of the surge protection circuits on shipboard electrical systems.

Dynamic simulation is critical for electrical ship studies as it obtains the necessary information to capture and characterize system performance over the range of system operations and dynamic events such as disturbances or contingencies. However, modeling and simulation of the interactive electrical and mechanical dynamics involves setting up and solving system equations in time-domain that is typically time consuming and computationally expensive. Accurate assessment of system dynamic behaviors of interest without excessive computational overhead has become a serious concern and challenge for practical application of electrical ship design, analysis, optimization and control. This paper aims to develop a systematic approach to classify the sophisticated dynamic phenomenon encountered in electrical ship modeling and simulation practices based on the design intention and the time scale of interest. Then a novel, comprehensive, coherent, and end-to-end mathematical modeling and simulation approach has been developed for the latest Medium Voltage Direct Current (MVDC) Shipboard Power System (SPS) with the objective to effectively and efficiently capture the system behavior for ship-wide system-level studies. The accuracy and computation efficiency of the proposed approach has been evaluated and validated within the time frame of interest in the cast studies. The significance and the potential application of the proposed modeling and simulation approach are also discussed.

Recently, integrated electric propulsion system has been vigorously adopted into naval vessels. To enhance effectiveness and efficiency of power management in these propulsion systems, this paper investigates necessity of energy storage devices and their operation strategies. By introducing the energy storage devices, engine can operate at higher efficiency point and accordingly costs for fuel and maintenance are significantly reduced. In addition, transient performance can also be improved with support of the devices and it leads to stable operation of shipboard power bus. To validate the proposal of this paper, computer simulation has been conducted with real load data of existing electric propulsion system.

This paper introduces the use of network theory to model and analyze disparate ship design information. This work will focus on a ship's distributed systems and their intra- and intersystem structures and interactions. The three system to be analyzed are: a passageway system, an electrical system, and a fire fighting system. These systems will be analyzed individually using common network metrics to glean information regarding their structures and attributes. The systems will also be subjected to community detection algorithms both separately and as a multiplex network to compare their similarities, differences, and interactions. Network theory will be shown to be useful in the early design stage due to its simplicity and ability to model any shipboard system.

선박 안의 각종 센서와 전기전자장비를 구성하고 원격제어를 수행하기 위해 선내 무선 네트워크의 구성이 필요하다. 선내에서는 공간적 제약으로 인해 직접 통신이 어려운 상황이 발생하기 쉬운 환경이므로 무선통신 모듈 간 원활한 연결을 위해 릴레이 기능을 포함하는 무선통신 프로토콜이 적합하다. 이 논문에서는 선내 무선통신 시스템의 데이터 전송률을 높이기 위한 릴레이 기반 선내 무선통신 프로토콜을 적용하여 성능 분석을 수행한다. 제안된 방식은 전송효율의 향상뿐만 아니라 릴레이 기능 수행을 위한 각 단말의 에너지 소모를 함께 고려하여 단말의 배터리 소모로 인한 통신단절을 최소화할 수 있도록 하였다. 성능 분석 결과 릴레이 기반 선내 무선통신을 통해 선내 무선 네트워크의 신뢰성이 향상됨을 확인하였다.

전기추진선박의 추진시스템에서 중요하게 고려해야 할 사항이 전력변환장치에 의해 전동기에 공급되는 전압 및 전류에 포함되는 고조파 성분을 억제하는 것이다. 근래에 특수선박의 전기추진시스템에서 속도 및 토크제어기법으로 많이 사용하고 있는 벡터제어방식이 많은 제어기와 복잡한 연산을 요구하고 토크의 동적 특성이 전동기의 정수변화에 영향이 큰 단점을 가지고 있어서 대안으로 제시되고 있는 제어기법 중에 하나가 직접토크제어방식이다. 하지만 직접토크제어방식은 영벡터를 인가하지 않으므로 토크리플이 심하여 공급 전류파형에 고조파 성분이 포함되는 단점을 가지고 있으므로 이를 해결해야 한다. 본 논문에서는 유도전동기를 추진기로 채용하고 있는 LNG 선박의 전기추진시스템에서 직접토크제어방식을 사용하는 경우에 고조파 발생을 저감하기 위한 제어방식을 제시한다. 새로운 직접토크제어방식은 샘플링 주파수의 변화없이 복잡한 제어기를 사용하지 않고 인버터 스위칭 주파수를 일정하게 유지한 채 개선된 공간벡터 변조법에 의해 인버터를 제어하는 방식이다. 제안된 방식의 유효성은 추진기에 공급되는 전류파형에 포함된 고조파 성분의 분석과 속도제어 특성을 통해 입증한다.
