The trend today and for the future is increasing reliance on electrification and digital control for marine applications. If you didn’t think ships, ferries, platforms, etc were excellent examples of microgrids before, the addition of energy storage, shore-based charging, complex distribution and protection systems, and hybridization leaves no room for discussion today.
How do you effectively test, validate, and verify these complex systems of controllers and power electronics? The best answer is with Typhoon HIL’s solution using Model Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) using Controller Hardware In the Loop (CHIL) technology.
