Shipboard Electrical Power Systems

Unlike most existing books, which focus primarily on land-based power systems to discuss the transmission grid, this book centers on all topics relevant to the shipboard power system, making the subject understandable for marine engineers who are not electrical majors. Written by an expert with decades of both industrial and teaching experience, this resource provides extensive information for engineers working on ports or renewable power systems in the ocean. Topics range from the basics of power systems, electrical machines, and power generation to the details of power electronics, electric propulsion, and ancillary marine power.
