Overview
Department 489 is part of the Integrated Power Systems (IPS) Directorate which is responsible for developing the
COLUMBIA
Class (CLB) state-of-the-art electric drive propulsion system. D489 is responsible for the development and construction support of the electric drive system (drives, controls, and power distribution).
General Description:
In support of electric drive design efforts, D489 is developing a Control Software Test Bed (CSTB) that contains a propulsion system emulator integrated with actual shipboard control hardware/software. The CSTB will be used to support propulsion component software certification and assist in the early discovery/ resolution of propulsion system controls issues. The CSTB emulator hardware runs in real-time to mimic propulsion system performance. The CSTB real-time control logic will use MATLAB/Simulink models to support rapid-prototyping of the propulsion system dynamics.
This work includes:
Integration of shipboard control hardware with propulsion & electric plant system real-time hardware
Development and modification of propulsion system models running in real-time,
Establish component interfaces, analog/digital conversion, relay logic, and control power design
Support hardware selection and procurement efforts
Develop CSTB design documentation, requirements, and test procedures
Responsibilities
Strong communication skills and motivation in a technology design environment are required.
Qualifications
Required
Bachelor of Science Degree in Electrical Engineering
0-3 years relevant experience
Preferred
Electric or mechanical experience or related education desired in the design, analysis, or test of power electronic systems
Experience with digital signal processing and non-linear, dynamic analysis
Classes in electromechanical energy conversion, electric drives, digital controls, power electronics, and electric machines
Familiarity with MATLAB/Simulink
Experience with similar modeling tools simulating electrical component and system performance
