Book VFD Challenges for Shipboard Electrical Power System Design

Download or read book VFD Challenges for Shipboard Electrical Power System Design written by Mohammed M. Islam and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2019-12-05 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.

Book Electromagnetic Compatibility in Power Systems

Download or read book Electromagnetic Compatibility in Power Systems written by Francesco Lattarulo and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2011-07-28 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A large amount of natural or artificially produced physical phenomena are exploited for practical applications, even though several of them give rise to unpleasant consequences. These ultimately manifest themselves under form of malfunction or definitive failure of components and systems, or environmental hazard. So far, manifold categories of inadvertent or deliberate sources have been discovered to simultaneously produce useful effects in some ways but adverse ones in others. In particular, responsible for the growing interest in the last decades for Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) has been the progressive miniaturisation and sensitivity of electronic components and circuits, often operating in close proximity to relatively powerful sources of electromagnetic interference. Potential authors of books on the subject-matter are fully aware of the fact that planning production of manageable handbooks capable to treat all the EMC case studies of practical and long-lasting interest could result in a questionable and difficult undertaking. Therefore, in addition to textbooks providing a thorough background on basic aspects, thus being well-tailored for students and those which want to get in contact with this discipline, the most can be made to jointly sustain a helpful and practicable publishing activity is to supply specialised monographs or miscellanies of selected topics. Such resources are preferentially addressed to post-graduate students, researchers and designers, often employed in the forefront of research or engaged for remodelling design paradigms. Hence, the prerequisite for such a class of publications should consist in arousing critical sense and promoting new ideas. This is the object of Electromagnetic Compatibility in Power Systems, which tries to rather discuss special subjects, or throw out suggestions for reformulating conventional approaches, than to appear as a reference text. A common motivation encouraged the contributors to bringing together a number of accounts of the research that they have undertaken over the late years: willing to fill the important need of covering EMC topics rather proper to transmission and distribution of electric power than, more usually, to Electronics and Telecommunication Systems. - EMC topics for Power Systems, at last! - Investigating EMC features of distributed and/or complex systems - A broad body of knowledge for specific applications - A stimulating support for those which are engaged in the forefront of research and design - An example of how breaking ideas should be encouraged and proudly applied - A fruitful critique to overcomplicated and unpractical models - A comprehensive resource to estimate the important role of EMC at lower frequencies

Book Reeds Vol 16  Electrical Power Systems for Marine Engineers

Download or read book Reeds Vol 16 Electrical Power Systems for Marine Engineers written by Gordon Boyd and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2020-10-01 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Within the marine and offshore industry, there is a clear and growing need for increased training and education on the use of electrical power systems. The number of electrical plant and appliances now in service has grown at an alarming rate in recent years, as has the amount of electrical power generated and utilised on board. Large passenger ships now carry as many electrical officers as marine engineers, and electrical propulsion is now in common use by LNG carriers, small parcel tankers, oil tankers, ferries, offshore support, the navy, fleet auxiliary, cable layers and cruise ships. A number of shipping companies now award the Chief Electro Technical Officer the equivalent rank to the ship's master and Chief Engineer. These developments have resulted in the establishment of a Foundation Degree programme for Electro Technical Officers and the current development of full degree programmes. As such, a targeted textbook for students on the subject is required. As with all titles in the Reeds Marine Engineering Series, this book will be written in clear, accessible language, so as to be of use to all students and particularly those for whom English isn't their first language. Technical drawings and diagrams will be used throughout and each chapter will be accompanied by example examination questions.

Book Selected Papers from the 2018 IEEE International Workshop on Metrology for the Sea

Download or read book Selected Papers from the 2018 IEEE International Workshop on Metrology for the Sea written by Attilio Di Nisio and published by MDPI. This book was released on 2020-11-13 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Special Issue is devoted to recent developments in instrumentation and measurement techniques applied to the marine field. ¶The sea is the medium that has allowed people to travel from one continent to another using vessels, even today despite the use of aircraft. It has also been acting as a great reservoir and source of food for all living beings. However, for many generations, it served as a landfill for depositing conventional and nuclear wastes, especially in its deep seabeds, and we are assisting in a race to exploit minerals and resources, different from foods, encompassed in it. Its health is a great challenge for the survival of all humanity since it is one of the most important environmental components targeted by global warming. ¶ As everyone may know, measuring is a step that generates substantial knowledge about a phenomenon or an asset, which is the basis for proposing correct solutions and making proper decisions. However, measurements in the sea environment pose unique difficulties and opportunities, which is made clear from the research results presented in this Special Issue.
