Abstract :
To improve energy flexibility and deal with peak energy demand in shipboard power system, a bi-directional dc/dc converter is investigated for a notional U.S. Navy Medium Voltage DC (MVDC) shipboard power system. Surplus energy due to light electric load or ship-speed variation can be captured by energy storages distributed in 800 V load zones and during heavy load or black starting condition, supplied to the rest of the 5 kV MVDC system through the bi-directional dc/dc converters. This paper presents the controller optimization process using the particle swarm optimization for an isolated-type bi-directional dc-dc converter. The control performance of the proposed controller is evaluated using small-signal average models and a large-scale simulation of the notional U.S. Navy MVDC system using the real-time digital simulator.
