Behavioral Methods for Next-Generation Shipboard Power System Simulation: Letting SPARCS Fly
Design requirements on modern naval platforms are increasing the complexity and criticality of onboard electric plants. They form the backbone of warship operational capability and are at the heart of maritime decarbonization. Tasks such as assessing the ship's capacity in a damaged state, …

Simulation and performance of a high frequency cycloconverter
With modern naval vessels headed in the direction of integrated power systems, new attention must be paid to efficiency of both power and space. However, modern designs for ship power systems often incorporate DC link converters, or synchroconverters, into their design. Not only does this add extra …

Shipboard fluid system diagnostics using non-intrusive load monitoring
Systems on modern naval vessels are becoming exclusively dependent on electrical power. One example of this is the replacement of distilling and evaporator plants with reverse osmosis units. As the system is in continuous operation, it is critical to have remote real-time monitoring and diagnostic …

Design space exploration and optimization using modern ship design tools
Modern Naval Architects use a variety of computer design tools to explore feasible options for clean sheet ship designs. Under the Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA), the Naval Surface Warfare Center, Carderock Division (NSWCCD) has created computer tools for ship design and analysis purposes. This …

Beamforming and scan pattern performance evaluation of rotating maritime multi-beam phased array surveillance radar
Modern naval ships face a wide spectrum of threats, from fast-moving sea-skimming missiles to slow-moving unmanned vehicles and boats. The rotating phased array naval surveillance radar provides 360° azimuth coverage at large elevation angles for early warning to initiate the appropriate action and …
