The Enablers
  • Pulse Width Modulation, PWM, converters is the
    major difference between past and present systems
  • Solid-state switches
  • Digital controls
  • Programmable
  • Past systems were synchronous 60hz generation
    and loads
  • Tomorrow's systems will be asynchronous
    generation working their optimum and loads at
    their optimum
  • Ships will be design to meet the functional
    requirements of a mission with the minimum
    numbers of boxes -- instead of a box for each
    mission function, as is the case today.

Power Design History
  • Past, control and power circuit were unique and
    unchanging, hardwired.
  • Today, with Digital Control PEBBs Power
    Electronic Building Blocks
  • For a given set of PEBBs, control and
    configuration can be varied during design process
    to produce different products.
  • However, the final product is unique and
    unchanging with a fixed control algorithm
  • Tomorrow, with Digital Control Networks
  • For a configuration of PEBBs, control can be
    varied in the field to produce many different
    system functions.
  • Topology will be dependent on the control
    implemented and the time dependant system
    coupling.
  • Models are Essential design, onboard,
    reference, system simulator/controller

New Technology Drivers
  • Power Density
  • Energy Density
  • System Efficiency
  • Control
  • Conversion Steps
  • Number of Phase Legs
  • Reconfiguration
  • Voltage
  • Current
  • Frequency
  • Pulse forming networks require charging
    circuits ranging from 10kV to 40kV.
  • Pulse forming discharge circuits can require up
    to 100kV switching.
  • Modulator circuits require 10kV to 50kV for
    input voltages and output voltages ranging from
    50kV to 1MV.

The Changing Role of Simulation
  • Today, simulation is used for evaluation.
  • Simulation programs require detailed design
    information
  • Circuit parameters are entered before simulation
    begins.
  • Variations in design can be analyzed
  • Tomorrow, simulation will become part of the
    design process.

Characteristics of Inverse Direct Problems
Prof. Abd A. Arkadan Marquette University
  • Direct problem
  • It is well posed
  • existence a solution exists
  • unique one solution
  • stability solution depends continuously on data
  • Inverse Problem
  • usually less is known about the problem
  • ill posed

12
The Model Is The Specification
  • Types of Models
  • Requirement Models (synthesis)
  • Product Models (analysis)
  • There may be many Product Models for a given
    Requirement Model

Design Levels, System of Systems

Mechanical, and Chemical
16
Research Problem
  • Design based on potential elements
  • Potential elements
  • Set of potential system designs
  • Set of potential future requirements
  • Extrapolation from known elements, system design
    processes, and requirements

Product models MUST Be Physics Based
17
Research Dilemma
  • A real system baseline is critical for power
    research
  • Cannot afford to build real systems for research
  • Real systems under development are not
    technically or politically sufficient for a
    research baseline
  • Number of statically significant experiments for
    the study of system of systems is for practical
    purposes infinite.

18
Validation and Emulation
  • Can not build the whole system, however
  • With physics based models, one will be able to
    assert the reality of future systems based on
    known physics.
  • Risk is a direct function of the unknown physics
    quantification of risk.
  • Build measurable portions of the future system to
    accept or reject the hypothesis of unknown
    physics.
  • Build a little and learn a lot.
  • Digital Power Laboratory is Essential
