Abstract :
The performance of a notional fully-integrated ship power system with a pulsed power combat system load was analyzed in the virtual test bed (VTB). Two traditional voltage control strategies (General Electric SCR excitation control and Westinghouse brushless control) and a nonlinear voltage control based on the Lyapunov direct method were implemented as voltage control for the synchronous generator. The power system is simulated for each of the three control strategies and responses to the pulsed power load are compared.
