Electric Propulsion Advantages
• Fewer Prime Movers – Less equipment to maintain– Fewer moving parts to wear
• Can optimize loading of engines easier– Under-loading of Diesels causes much of USN's problems– Under-loading GT's causes significantly increased fuel usage
• Best architecture for adopting Fuel Cell Prime Movers• Electric Machines & Solid State power converters require
less preventative maintenance than the components they replace
• More amenable to automation – requires automation

Integrated Electric Ships
(68 ships listed on a
VERY incomplete list)
Foreign Navy Trends
• UK– Type 23 Frigate in Service -- hybrid electric / mechanical drive– Type 45 under contract -- full integrated power system– LPD replacement, under construction -- full IPS– Oiler replacement, under construction -- full IPS
• Netherlands– LPD "Rotterdam" in service -- full IPS– IPS declared for future surface combatants
• Spain– Developing IPS for combatants & auxiliaries
• France, Canada, Brazil, Japan, Russia ...– Investigating IPS for future ships
• Many other Navies interested
Over 27 countries represented at the last All Electric Ship Conference
Technologies to Support Zero Maintenance (cont.)
• Electric Auxiliaries– VSD fed motors for fluid pumping applications
• Eliminate dampers, unloading valves• Reduce pump wear and pipe erosion• Eliminate electromechanical motor controllers,
gearboxes & clutches on winches– Solid state ABT's – Need I say more!– Eliminate central hydraulics on Subs

Electric Weapons
EMALS / EARS
• EMALS– Baseline for CVN-78– Uses linear motors to launch aircraft vs. steam catapults– Rotating electric machines for energy storage– Ongoing competition – Large-scale prototypes under
construction & test, downselect scheduled next year– Primary reasons for going electric:
• Lower maintenance & manning requirements• Less stressful for airframes
• EARS– Uses electric machines to dissipate energy from arresting wires
vs. hydraulic motors– Not as far along as EMALS but development is ongoing

Free Electron Laser (FEL)& Solid State Laser
A Free Electron Laser is a device that includes an accelerator, a magnetic undulatoror wiggler, and an optical cavity to produce a beam of coherent radiation.

Amplifiers
Master Oscillator
• Some of the SS Lasers are Operating in the Correct Atmospheric Windows for Maritime Propagation (~1.0 Micron)
• Other Services are Pursuing SS Lasers due to Perceived Smaller Size & Ruggedness
• Primary Technology Hurdle is Removing Excess Heat from the Solid Material
Electrons wiggling in the undulatormagnet emit light.Bunching of the electrons creates coherent laser light.
Summary
• Electronic Technologies are available today
• Electronic Technologies are more reliable and require less maintenance than mechanical technologies, in general
• Many Electronic Technologies bring warfighting benefits as well as reduced maintenance.
The technologies are out there. The US Navy needs a paradigm shift!
