Characterization of the transient behavior of an AC/DC conversion system for a notional all-electric ship simulation using sequential experimental design methodology

ABSTRACT

Experimental design methodology is applied to the characterization of a transient simulation of the AC/DC conversion system of a notional all-electric ship in terms of parameters of the simulation. The process of constructing the surrogate models describing the behavior of the system during a load rejection transient scenario is presented and selected results from predictions from the surrogate models are presented.
