Integrated Power Systems (IPS)
Abstract
This project supports the development and transition of Naval Power and Energy Systems including power generation, power conversion, power distribution, energy storage, power utilization and automation and control functions for fully integrated electric propulsion (such as T-AKE -1 class or DDG 1000 class), hybrid electric propulsion (such as LHD 8 and LHA(R) class), as well as legacy mechanical propulsion ships (such as DDG51 class). This project supports optimized integration of Directed Energy (DE) and other high powered mission systems, appropriate component and system controls, integration of components and systems into future and current ships, and providing power and energy system solution alternatives to new and existing platforms. Existing ships' power systems require optimized integration via energy storage and advanced controls techniques to withstand the effects of DE and other high powered mission systems and avoid negative impacts to power generating equipment (diesel/gas turbine engines and generators). Project developments are aligned with the Navy's 30 year shipbuilding plan via the Naval Power and Energy Systems Technology Development Roadmap (TDR), which outlines the way ahead for future developments and provides a basis for coordinated planning and investment by the Navy and private industry. This project develops and transitions products that electrically integrate and provide power to mission systems, integrates those components and systems into ship platforms, increases energy efficiency, and provides cybersecurity capabilities for current in-service Hull, Mechanical and Electrical (HM&E) systems as well as future systems. The systems developed by this Project are the power and energy foundation of the ships kill chain, and are developed with efficiency requirements as part of total life cycle cost minimization. Efforts within Power and Energy Systems are to design, develop, test and integrate shipboard power systems to incorporate advanced sensors, directed energy and other advanced weapons. Design and testing includes modeling and simulation, as well as land based testing, to reduce risk and demonstrate readiness for shipboard use. Cybersecurity: Situational Awareness, Boundary Enforcement & Response (SABER) is a joint effort between PEO Ships, NAVSEA 21, PEO Carriers, NAVSEA 05Q (Afloat Cybersecurity Engineering Division), and supported by NSWC Philadelphia Division, to protect shipboard Hull, Mechanical, and Electrical (HM&E) systems from cyber-attacks. SABER will use different sensors to monitor the HM&E network and system communications to detect potential attacks. These sensors will feed information back to the central SABER Rack where Cyber Situational Awareness (SA) software will analyze the communications and produce alerts on any anomalies. SABER will also include Boundary Defense capabilities at points where communications come into the HM&E enclave from other enclaves or functional domains (e.g., Navigation, Combat, C4I, Aviation).
