Ship power system modelling for the control and optimisation of multiple alternative energy sources on-board a ship

conference paper
The INOMANS2HIP project aimed to create advanced ship systems models to investigate alternative energy technology installations on-board a Ro/Ro cargo ship. The project developed an energy management system (EMS) and novel human machine interface (HMI) to provide optimized operational set-points and control of installed power systems. This paper will present an overview and results of the advanced modelling, to provide accurate and realistic simulations of the complete ship. It will also discuss the application of Particle Swarm Optimization algorithms (PSO) and Simplex method to optimize on-board energy flow for reduced fuel consumption and, thus, emissions.
