Abstract :
The VTB (Virtual Test Bed) project is dedicated to developing a new environment for simulation and virtual prototyping of power electronic systems. This paper describes an experience of the importing of an ACSL (Advanced Continuous Simulation Language) model: the all-electrical icebreaker Healy of the US Coast Guard. The goal of the project is to support the multi-language capabilities of the VTB and to improve the ship´s model. This legacy model has been tested and validated data has been made available for comparison
