Abstract

The following paper provides details of an optimal control algorithm for the operation and analysis of an electric microgrid designed to power either a medium voltage AC (MVAC), medium voltage DC (MVDC), or a hybrid MVAC/MVDC electric warship. The algorithm consists of a reduced order model (ROM) that describes the microgrid, a discretization of the equations that result from the ROM, and an optimization formulation that controls the microgrid's behavior. In order to validate this approach, the paper compares results from two different ship configurations applied to an operational vignette based on mission profiles.
