Enhanced Fuel Injection, Higher Operating Temperatures And Pressures, And Optimized Thermal Management Are Critical For Future Prime Movers. Advanced Controls For Increased Efficiency, Reduced Maintenance, And Increased Reliability Include Implementation Of Digital Controls; Autonomous And Unmanned Power Control; Enhanced Engine Monitoring, Diagnostics, And Prognostics; And Distributed Controls. Advanced Designs For Increased Efficiency Include New Applications Of Thermodynamic Cycles Such As Humphrey/atkinson Cycle For Gas Turbines And Diesels And Miller Cycle For Diesel. the Navy Is Interested In Developing A Knowledge Bank Of Information On Potential Generator Sets, Generator Electrical Interface Requirements, And The Impacts Of Those Requirements On Generator Set Performance And Size, As A Logical Next Step From The Request For Information Released Under Announcement N00024-16-r-4205. A Long-term Goal For This Effort Is To Maximize Military Effectiveness Through Design Choice And Configuration Option Flexibility When Developing Next-generation Distribution Plants. The Power Generation Source Should Fit Within The Length Of A Typical Engine Room (46 Feet, Including Allowances For Any Needed Maintenance And Component Removal). The Power Generation Source Is Expected To Have The Ability To: Control Steady-state Voltage-current Characteristic For Its Interface; To Maintain Stability; And To Adjust Control Set-points From System Level Controllers. For Any Proposed Design Approach, Initial Efforts Would Include Conceptual Design Trade Studies That Inform The Performance Level That Can Be Achieved. Trade Studies May Address Pulsed Load Capability (generator/rectifier Design To Increase Pulse Load Capability, Engine Speed Variation Limits, And Impact Of Cyclic Pulse Load On Component Life); Power Density (cost Vs. Benefits Of High Speed Or High Frequency, Mounting On Common Skid, And Advanced Cooling Concepts); Single Vs. Dual Outputs (continuous Vs. Pulse Rating For Each Output, Voltage Regulation With Shared Field, And Control Of Load Sharing); Efficiency (part Load Vs. Full Load Optimization, Flexible Speed Regulation, Impact Of Intake And Exhaust Duct Size/pressure Drop On Engine Efficiency); Power Quality (voltage Transient, Voltage Modulation For Step, Pulse Loads, Impact Of Voltage And Current Ripple Requirements, And Common Mode Current); Pgm Controls (prime Mover Speed Vs. Generator Field Vs. Rectifier Active Phase Angle Control, And Pulse Anticipation); Stability When Operating In Parallel With Other Sources; Short Circuit Requirements; And Dark Ship Start Capability (self-contained Support Auxiliaries). Trade Studies May Also Address How Rotational Energy Storage Can Be Built Into The Design Of The Generator Or Added To The Generator And What Parameters Need To Be Defined In Order To Exploit This Capability. Development Of Advanced Coatings And Materials That Support High Temperature Operations Of A Gas Turbine Is Also Of Interest. Energy Harvesting To Convert Heat Energy And Specifically Low Quality Heat Energy To Electricity Using Solid State Components Is Also Of Interest To The Navy. 4.3.5 Rotating Machines (including Generators And Propulsion Motors) recent Trends In Electrical Machines Include Neural Networks; Artificial Intelligence; Expert System; Fiber Communications And Integrated Electronics; New Ceramic Conducting And Dielectric Materials; And Magnetic Levitation. High Temperature Superconducting Rotors Have Higher Power Density Than Their Induction And Synchronous Rotor Counterparts. Wind Power Generators Eliminate Excitation Losses Which Can Account For 30% Of Total Generator Losses. The Offshore Wind Power Industry Is Moving To Larger Power Wind Tower Generators In The 10mw Class. Advanced Low Resistance Room Temperature Wire And Hts Shows Promise For These Higher Power Levels Because Of Low Excitation Losses And Low Weight Due To Reduction In Stator And Rotor Iron. Hts Motors May Be Up To 50% Smaller And Lighter Than Traditional Iron-core And Copper Machines. They Have Reduced Harmonic Vibrations Due To Minimization Of Flux Path Iron And Have Mitigated Thermal Cycling Failures Due To Precision Control Of Temperature. propulsion Motor Concepts Of Interest To The Navy Include Permanent Magnet Motors (radial Air Gap, Axial Air Gap, Or Transverse Flux), Induction Motors (wound Rotor Or Squirrel Cage), Superconducting Field Type (homopolar Dc Or Synchronous Ac). The Drivers And Issues Associated With These Designs Include Acoustic Signature, Noise (requirements, Limitations, Modeling, Sources, And Mitigation Methods), Shock, Vibration, Thermal Management, Manufacturing Infrastructure, Machine Insulation System Characteristics, Commercial Commonality, Platform Commonality, Cost, Torque, Power, Weight, Diameter, Length, Voltage, Motor Configuration, And Ship Arrangements Constraints. Motor Drives That May Be Explored Include Cyclo-converter (with Variations In Control And Power Device Types), Pulse Width Modulated Converter/inverter (with Many Variations In Topology), Switching (hard Switched, Soft Switched), And Matrix Converter (with Variations In Control, Topology, Cooling, Power Device Type). Technologies For Drives And Rotating Machines Which Allow The Ability To Operate As A Motor And A Generator To Facilitate A Pdss Installation Or On A Fully Integrated Power System To Leverage The Inherent Energy Storage In The Ship's Motion May Be Explored. Integrated Motor/propulsor Concepts May Be Considered Either As Aft-mounted Main Propulsion Or As A Forward Propulsor Capable Of Propelling A Ship At A Tactically Useful Speed. Areas Of Interest For Future Rotating Machines Include Increased Magnetic Material Flux Carrying Or Flux Generation Capacity; Improved Electrical Insulation Material And Insulation System Dielectric Strength; Increased Mechanical Strength, Increased Thermal Conductivity, And Reduced Sensitivity To Temperature; Improved Structural Materials And Design Concepts That Accept Higher Torsional And Electromagnetically Induced Stress; Innovative And Aggressive Cooling To Allow Improved Thermal Management And Increased Current Loading; Increased Electrical Conductor Current Carrying Capacity And Loss Reduction. 4.3.6 Cooling And Thermal Management as The Demand And Complexity Of High Energy Loads Increases, So Does The Demand And Complexity Of Thermal Management Solutions. Assessing And Optimizing The Effectiveness Of A Thermal Management System Requires The Analysis Of Thermal Energy Acquisition, Thermal Energy Transport, And Thermal Energy Rejection, Storage, And Conversion. The Design Of The Thermal Management System Aims To Transfer The Thermal Energy Loads At The Sources To The Sinks In The Most Efficient Manner. areas Of Interest To The Navy With Respect To Cooling And Thermal Management Include The Application Of Two Phased Cooling And Other Advanced Cooling Techniques To Power Electronics And Other Npes Components And Innovative Approaches To Manage Overall Ship Thermal Management Issues Including Advanced Thermal Architectures, Thermal Energy Storage Systems, Increases In Efficiency, And Advanced Control Philosophies. 4.3.7 Power Controls controls Manage Power And Energy Flow Within The Ship To Ensure Delivery To The Right Load In The Right Form At The Right Time. Supervisory Power System Control Typically Resides On An External Distributed Computer System And Therefore Does Not Include Hardware Elements Unless Specialized Hardware Is Required. The Challenge To Implement Tactical Energy Management (tem) Is To Integrate Energy Storage, Power Generation, And Interfaces With Advanced Warfighting Systems And Controls. Tem Is Critical To Enabling Full Utilization Of The Capabilities Possible From Technologies Under Development. The State Complexity And Combat Engagement Timelines For Notional Future Warfighting Scenarios Are Expected To Exceed The Cognitive Capacity And Response Times Of Human Operators To Effectively Manage The Electric Plant Via Existing Control System Schema In Support Of Executing Ship Missions. The Survivability Requirements For Military Ships Combined With The Higher Dynamic Power Characterisitics (pulse Load) Characteristics Of Some Mission Systems Will Require More Sophisticated Control Interfaces, Power Management Approaches, And Algorithms Than Are Commercially Available. The Navy Is Pursuing A Long Term Strategy To Create A Unified, Cyber Secure Architecture For Machinery Control Systems That Feature A Common, Reusable, Cyber Hardened Machinery Control Domain Specific Infrastructure Elements; A Mechanism For Transitioning New Technology From A Variety Of Sources In An Efficient And Consistent Manner; And A Mechanism To Provide Life Cycle Updates And Support In A Cost Effective And Timely Manner.tem Controls Will Be Expected To Maintain Awareness Of The Electric Plant Operating State (real Time Modeling); Interface With Ship Mission Planning (external To The Electric Plant Control Systems) For Energy Resource Prioritization, Planning, And Coordination Towards The Identification Of Resource Allocation States That Dynamically Optimize Mission Effectiveness; Identify And Select Optimal Trajectories To Achieving Those Optimal Resource Allocation States; And Actuate The Relevant Electric Plant Components To Move The Electric Plant State Along Those Optimized Trajectories Towards The Optimal Resource Allocation State. Tem Controls Would Enable Reduced Power And Energy System Resource Requirements For A Given Capability (or Improved Capability For A Given Set Of Resources); Increased Adaptability Of The Navy’s Power And Energy System Design To Keep Pace With An Evolving Threat Environment; And Maximized Abilities To Execute The Ship’s Mission. the Navy Is Interested In Potential Applications Of Distributed Control Architectures That Have Led To The Development Of Intelligent Agents That Have Some Autonomous Ability To Reason About System State And Enact Appropriate Control Policies. A Simple Example Of These Agents In A Control System Is The Use Of Autonomous Software Coupled With Smart Meters In A Smart Grid Implementation. The Agents, Smart Meters In This Example, Can Temporarily Shut Off Air Conditioning But Not The Refrigerator In Residences During Grid Peak Power Usage Times When The Cost Per Watt Is Highest On Hot Days. The Agent Software Acts Autonomously Within Its Authority To Comply With Programmed Customer Desires. The Navy Is Interested In Tem Controls Within A Modular Open Systems Architecture Framework Such That They Are Agnostic Of, But Affordably Customizable To, Specific Ship Platforms And Power System Architectures. Tem Controls May Reside Between (i.e. Interface With) Embedded Layers Within Individual Power System Components, Ships’ Supervisory Machinery Control Systems, And Ships’ Mission Planning Systems. Initial Or Further Development Or Modification Of These Interfaces May Be Required To Achieve Desired Performance Behaviors And Characteristics. Tem Controls Are Expected To Develop Within A Model-based System Engineering And Digital Engineering Environment And Will Be Initially Evaluated In A Purely Computational Environment, Representing Navy-developed Shipboard-representative Power And Energy System Architecture(s), But Will Be Progressively Evaluated On Systems With Increasing Levels Of Physical Instantiation (i.e., Controller-hardware-in-loop And Power-hardware-in-loop With Progressive Levels Of Representative Power System Components Physically Instantiated). When Implementing A Tem Based Control Scheme, The Overall Power System Should Increase Installed Power Generation Available To Mission And Auxiliary Loads; Reduce Power System Design Margins; Hone The Installed Stored Energy Required For Mission Critical Capability; And Allow Higher Power Transients (ramp Rates And Step Loads). Other Areas Of Interest To The Navy With Respect To Controls Include Improvements To Traditional Machinery Control And Automation, Advanced Power Management, Cyber Security, And Advanced Controls For Distributed Shared Energy Storage And Maintaining Electrical System Stability. The Navy Is Also Interested In Non-intrusive Load Monitoring, Power System Data Analytics, Real Time System Monitoring And Onboard Analysis And Diagnostics Capabilities. 4.3.8 System Interplay, Interfacing, And Integration increasingly, The Navy Is Recognizing The Need For Incorporating Flexibility And Adaptability Into Initial Ship Designs And Recognizing That The Integration Of New Systems And The Ability To Rapidly Reconfigure Them Will Be An Ongoing Challenge Throughout A Platform's Life Cycle In Order To Maintain Warfighting Relevancy. The Ability To Support Advanced Electrical Payload Warfighting Technologies Requires Not Only Power And Energy Systems Delivered With The Flexibility And Adaptability To Accommodate Them, But A Npes Engineering Enterprise With The Capability And Capacity (knowledge, Labor, And Capital) For Continuous Systems Integration. The Navy Can More Affordably Meet This Challenge By Shifting As Much Effort As Possible Into The Computational Modeling And Simulation Regime. an Integrated Power System (ips) Provides Total Ship Electric Power Including Electric Propulsion, Power Conversion And Distribution, Energy Storage, Combat System Support And Ship Mission Load Interfaces To The Electric Power System. Adding Energy Storage And Advanced Controls To Ips Results In An Integrated Power And Energy System (ipes) In Order To Accommodate Future High Energy Weapons And Sensors. The Ipes Energy Magazine Is Available To Multiple Users, And Provides Enhanced Power Continuity To The Power Distribution System. The Flexibility Of Electric Power Transmission Allows Power Generating Modules With Various Power Ratings To Be Connected To Propulsion Loads And Ship Service In Any Arrangement That Supports The Ships Mission At The Lowest Total Ownership Cost (toc). systems Engineering In Ips/ipes Is Focused On Increasing The Commonality Of Components Used Across Ship Types (both Manned And Unmanned) And In Developing Modules That Will Be Integral To Standardization, Zonal System Architectures, And Generic Shipbuilding Strategies With Standard Interfaces That Are Navy-controlled. Ipes Offers The Potential To Reduce Signatures By Changing The Frequency And Amplitude Of Acoustic And Electromagnetic Emissions. Integrated Energy Storage Can Reduce Observability By Enabling The Reduction And Elimination Of Prime Movers, Thereby Reducing Thermal And Acoustic Signatures. The Modules Or Components Developed Will Be Assessed For Applicability Both To New Construction And To Back-fit Opportunities That Improve The Energy Efficiency And Mission Effectiveness. areas Of Navy Interest Are To Continuously Improve Ips/ipes By Performing Analysis, Modeling And Simulation, Life Cycle Cost Analysis, Producibility Studies, Module Development, Ship Integration Studies, Architecture Design, Ship Electric Architectures And Support For High Power Weapons Systems Requirements, And Related Efforts. High Level Power System Architectures Are Based On Mvac And Mvdc Power With Attributes Of Power Density, Fault Management, Capability And Affordability. For Ship Service Electrical Loads, The Architecture Includes Zonal Electrical Distribution Which May Be Either Ac Or Dc, Depending Upon The Specific Application. In Addition To A Full Ipes Or Ips Implementation, Hybrid Electric Drive (hed) Where Mechanical Propulsion Is Augmented By Rotating Electric Machinery, Or Additional Power Generation Or Energy Storage May Be Of Interest. The Navy Desires To Understand The Performance And Cost Trade Space That Is Available For The Various Options Of Architecture; Component, System And Controls Technologies; Functional Allocations; And Interfaces. Also Of Interest Are Technologies That Result In Significant Energy Efficiency, Thermal Improvements, Power Density Improvements And/or Carbon Footprint Improvements Over Existing Propulsion And Power System Technologies. Another Area Of Interest For The Navy Is The Interface Definition Between Unique Electrical Loads And The Power System, And The Provision Of Specialty Power To Optimize That Load Interface. Among The Special Load Interfaces That Might Require Development Are Support For Pulsed Power Weapons And Sensors Such As Radar Power Supplies, Electromagnetic Launchers (for Example Electromagnetic Railgun), And Advanced Laser Systems, All Of Which Would Benefit From Optimized Integration With The Shipboard Power System. the Approach To Prototype Hardware Developed Under This Baa Is That It Fosters Modularity And Scalability (so That Families Of Products May Be Leveraged To Multiple Potential Applications) And Shall Accommodate An Open System Architecture Where Interfaces Are Well Defined And Mutually Accepted. The Navy Is Interested In Both Near Term Solutions That Have The Potential For Rapid Transition To A High Technology Readiness Level (trl) As Well As Longer Term Technology Pushes That Advance The Science And Would Enable A Future Compact Shipboard System. Risk Reducing Technology Prototype Demonstrations In The Near Term Are Encouraged. An Evaluation Of Emerging Technologies For Ship Applications (such As Energy Storage, Support For High Energy Weapons, Support For High Power Radars, High-speed Generators, And Advanced Power Electronics) To Determine Future Feasibility And Development Requirements Is Also Of Great Interest. Development Of Advanced Design Tools And Power System Specifications And Standards Is Also Key To Ensuring New Power Systems Will Integrate Aboard Ship. The Navy Is Interested In A Model-based Approach To Power System Engineering, From Early Concept System Architecture Trade Studies And Trade-space Exploration, To Production-ready Performance Specifications For Component And Systems Acquisitions. Particular Technologies And System Concepts Will Need To Be Evaluated In A Common Set Of Modeling Contexts And Environments Standardized Across The Navy Power System Engineering Enterprise. Modeling-enabled Evaluation Of Technology Alternatives And Performance Of System-level Trade Studies Requires That Models Be Delivered With A Sufficient Pedigree Supported By Analysis, Verification, And Validation (e.g., By Subscale Hardware Demonstrations) To Prove The Applicability Of The Models For The Standardized Modeling Contexts And Environments (model Based System Engineering). 5.
