On the Simulation of an All Electric Ship Powertrain Utilizing a Surface Piercing Propeller Via a Modular Main Propulsion Plant Model

A modular simulation model of a marine powertrain consisting of a prime mover, propeller shaft, propulsor, and control system was developed, tested, and used to demonstrate the ability to analyze the marine powertrain numerically. The modularity of the model allows for the user to easily substitute...
