| Summary: | DC power system is gaining popularity. Research
is being conducted worldwide on implementation of LVDC
(low voltage direct current) and MVDC (medium voltage direct
current) in applications such as ship power systems. One major
hurdle to this path is the immaturity of the protection systems.
This paper deals with the modeling of LV/MVDC power system
with different marine loads and faults. Since LV/MVDC power
systems are still in preliminary stages, their modeling and fault
analysis will help in addressing the requirements of various
protection strategies. The system modeling and fault simulations
are done in simulation software Power Systems Computer Aided
Design (PSCAD). The components of DC ship power system are
also described. |
