Design and Simulation of a Ship Propulsion System Using High Performance Drives Controlled Induction Motor

A. O. Balogun, Aliyu Murtala

Abstract


This paper is about the use of induction motor for ship propulsion system replacing the old mechanical system of using gear box. The Direct Torque Control (DTC) of induction motor can be used to simulate the ship propulsion system. This can be achieved by controlling the output of a 3-phase induction motor using 3-phase inverter. The DTC will be used to control the induction motor speed and torque by comparing the outputs of the inverter and the induction motor. The mechanical output of the induction motor will be transmitted to the ship propeller via a meshing gear system. The circuits and mathematical models of the various building blocks of the project such as the 3-phase induction motor, 3 phase inverter, DTC, meshing gear system and propeller were formulated. The formulated models were used simulated using Matlab and Simulink.
