   Active filters in marine applications
By S. R. Jones; P. Manuelle; R. Baumgartner; M. A. Leppard; P. Norton [View]
[Download]

Abstract: The use of electric propulsion in marine applications provides significant advantages over traditional mechanical solutions. Such supply networks are however, amongst the most demanding in terms of power quality and harmonic mitigation due to the variation in term of frequency and short circuit power The paper describes these power quality issues and the design methodology to achieve the most convenient system architecture for addressing them. Current marine applications will be used to highlight the advantages of active filtering techniques compared to passive filtering under marine operational conditions to achieve a contractual target in term of voltage distortion.

   Drive systems for operation on deep-sea ROV's
By P. Snary; C.M. Bingham; D.A. Stone; N. Schofield [View]

Abstract: Power systems for thruster actuators and other auxiliaries employed on work-class deep-sea ROVs subject to 300bar ambient pressures, are considered. Emphasis on 3×3 matrix converters for thrusters and 3×2 matrix converters for system auxiliaries, is given, along with experimental results showing operation during pressure cycling consistent with typical operational duties.
