Abstract— Electric propulsion system integrated with doubly- rotor synchronous motor, the permanent magnet synchronous fed asynchronous motor contributes efficient characteristics and motor (PMSM), and the squirrel cage induction motor. Among flexibility in operation. However, in perception of energy saving these, wound rotor synchronous motor supplied by current and full-scale speed variation, the conventional doubly fed source inverters (synchro converter) is very commonly used in asynchronous motor is limited by the ratings of power converters. ship propulsion, which is limited for higher rating, because it has Generally, the electrical machines are designed to attain maximum more weight and volume due to the involved inductors. Even efficiency around the full load. To increase energy saving and though the PMSM has various benefits like, less rotor loss, operating speed range under lightly loaded condition, the larger power density, high efficiency, etc., it has some proposed strategy injects a low voltage DC supply to the stator drawbacks. They are, demagnetization due to the lack of winding instead of full rated AC supply. Wherein the DC supply is excitation control, higher cost, operating restrictions with obtained from the converter’s DC-link instead of external source. The proposed system is mathematically modelled using operating temperature and mechanical stresses [4]. Matlab/Simulink tool and implemented experimentally with a 2.2 Ultimately, the recent developments of power electronics kW doubly fed asynchronous motor.
