Background: Advanced Electric Ship Demonstrator (AESD)
also known as “Sea Jet” 1/4 scale model, Length: 133 feet, Weight:
239,000 lbs, Location: Bayview, Idaho AESD is used for a variety of different tests and
experiments (eg. Acoustic data collection, Hull modification, Motor types)
Propulsion System is powered by 720 12V@40A/Hr Batteries
Auxiliary System is powered by 4 UPS Shore power, Diesel Engine used for charging
4
Problem Definition: This is a Feasibility Study with the following
objectives: Replace the Four Uninterrupted Power Supplies
(UPS) Provide Uninterrupted Power Flow to Every Auxiliary
Load. Increase the Duration of Battery Run Time (Increase
Quiet Mode Run time) Decrease Charge Time for Batteries (Decrease Time Between Quiet Mode Runs) Decrease Acoustic Contamination
5
What is an uninterruptible power supply (UPS):
PROSUPS provide a Load with power at all timesDuring connection to Shore/Diesel Generator, Load is powered and battery is charging.During Quiet Mode Runs the Battery supplies the Load with power
CONS UPS are not designed to run on the internal batteries for extended timeUPS are not designed to charge quickly UPS are not designed to minimize acoustics (Inverters)
4 UPS = 4 Inverters = Loud
SHORT QUIET MODE RUNS
LONG CHARGE TIME
ACOUSTIC CONTAMINATION

Current Design:
7
Design specifications: Remove the (4) uninterruptible power supplies
(UPS) causing unwanted acoustics. Continuous power supply to the loads at all times. Draw power from a common bus. Batteries capable of providing power for more than
45 minutes.
8
Design process: Brainstormed/researched DC microgrids Obtained load profiles from NAVSEA Calculated power consumed by the
auxiliary power system Determined the number of batteries
needed

Load information:With Onboard Data Acquisition System (ODAS) equipment off:• UPS #1 – 6.0A• UPS #2 – 13.9A• UPS #3 – 2.0A• UPS #4 – 3.3AWith ODAS equipment on:• UPS #1 – 17.4A• UPS #2 – 18.5A• UPS #3 – 7.3A• UPS #4 – 3.3AUPS #4 has weak batteries causing ODAS configuration not
to be utilized for this unit.

Design Schematic # 2Auxiliary System ties into Propulsion System
Auxiliary load is roughly a 12% increase to the connecting string
Vital Loads have power at all times
Looking into DC switchboards to connect to multiple strings to divide load

Design #2 Calculations
15
Constraints: Space: Current UPS dimensions
approximately 4*(4ft. by 2ft. by 2ft.). Battery dimensions approximately 24*(12 in. by 6 in. by 4 in.) SPACE not a problem.
Cost: Design #2 will be cheaper based on less materials and components.
16
Options Considered Current Lead-Acid Batteries (12V @
40A/Hr) Lithium-Ion Batteries (36.8V @ 50A/Hr) Fuel cells (not feasible)
• Size needed for storage• cost
Back up battery bank for Design # 2 Types of Inverters, most cost effective and
easy to implement
