Abstract :
This contribution aims primarily at making a discussion on the shaft generator systems installed onboard highlighting their advantages and disadvantages focusing on that they can possibly be a hybrid alternative to "full electric propulsion" concept. On the other hand, an investigation via simulations is made of the conditions of the ship electric network operation at different modes of operation of a representative shaft generator system.
