AFE Diesel electric propulsion

Choice and benefits of AFE:

The main advantages of the transformerless AFE Topology, together with the ones related to DFE:

• Size-Weight optimization. Transformerless configuration, cabling simplicity.
• Supply Quality. THD improvement.
• Stability. Higher compensation capability under load transients.
• Energy saved from the stopping of the propeller.
• DC Bus Regulation. Better performance under grid voltage transients.
• Unitary Power Factor. Reduction of DE generator size.
• Less cabling.
• Layout flexibility.
• Saving in hull space.
