The only book that covers fundamental shipboard design and
verification concepts from individual devices to the system level
Shipboard electrical system design and development requirements are
fundamentally different from utility-based power generation and
distribution requirements. Electrical engineers who are engaged in
shipbuilding must understand various design elements to build both
safe and energy-efficient power distribution systems. This book
covers all the relevant technologies and regulations for building
shipboard power systems, which include commercial ships, naval
ships, offshore floating platforms, and offshore support vessels.
In recent years, offshore floating platforms have been frequently
discussed in exploring deep-water resources such as oil, gas, and
wind energy. This book presents step-by-step shipboard electrical
system design and verification fundamentals and provides
information on individual electrical devices and practical design
examples, along with ample illustrations to back them. In addition,
Shipboard Power Systems Design and Verification Fundamentals
Presents real-world examples and supporting drawings for shipboard
electrical system design Includes comprehensive coverage of
domestic and international rules and regulations (e.g. IEEE 45,
IEEE 1580) Covers advanced devices such as VFD (Variable Frequency
Drive) in detail This book is an important read for all electrical
system engineers working for shipbuilders and shipbuilding
subcontractors, as well as for power engineers in general.
An in-depth exploration of shipboard power generation and
distribution system design that utilizes variable frequency drives
The variable frequency drive (VFD) application is a proven
technology for shore-based applications. However, shore-based VFDs
often are unsuitable for shipboard applications because the power
generation and distribution fundamentals are completely different.
VFD Challenges for Shipboard Electrical Power System Design
explores the problems presented by variable frequency drives as
they are applied in shipboard power generation and distribution
system design and offers solutions for meeting these challenges.
VFDs with configurations such as six pulse drive, 12 pulse drive,
18 pulse drive, active front end, pulse width modulation and many
others generate many different levels of harmonics. These harmonics
are often much higher than the regulations allow. This book covers
a range of techniques used to provide ships with efficient energy
that minimizes mechanical and electrical stress. This important
book: Offers a comparison of shipboard grounding and VFD grounding
Contains an analysis of the VFD effect in terms of shipboard power
quality Includes specific examples of Department of Transportation
standards regarding VFDs Written for commercial and naval engineers
designing ships and/or shipboard power systems, VFD Challenges for
Shipboard Electrical Power System Design is a comprehensive
resource that addresses the problems and solutions associated with
shipboard applications of VFD.
