Modern Systems of Multilevel Converters to Supply Ships from Shore

Abstract

The article content touching the topic of onshore power supply systems of ships by the modern power converters. In article two high voltage multilevel power converter topology with classic phase shifting transformer and high frequency transformer were presented and compared. In article an simulation results made by Matlab/Simulink software of characteristic electrical transients in selected points of supply systems were also shown and commented.

Keywords
