Co-Optimization of Energy Storage System Design and Control for Electrified Naval Propulsion Systems

Abstract

This project will develop and validate a mathematical framework for the combined optimization of the architecture/topology, component selection, design, and control of electrified hybrid powertrains for future navy systems. The proposed research will be broadly applicable to ground, surface, underwater, and airborne vehicles – including both manner and autonomous vehicles. The goal will be to deliver powertrain systems that can execute a given portfolio of potential missions in a robust and reliable manner, while minimizing overall system energy/fuel consumption as well as other factors such as system signature. The project will furnish four main deliverables, namely: (i) reduced-order battery models to be employed in the optimization framework, (ii) control algorithms to be employed in the combined design/control optimization framework, (iii) the proposed combined design/control optimization framework, and (iv) scaled hardware-in-the-loop simulation of the research results.
