power electronics, survivability, zonal distribution, electric propulsion
To facilitate research in power electronic based system design, a hardware-based integrated power system testbed has been developed. The testbed consists of an AC generation and propulsion system that is coupled to a DC zonal distribution system. A primary objective of the testbed is to provide a resource to the academic and industrial community by providing a non proprietary system on which to demonstrate controls, survivability algorithms, and validate computer-aided design (CAD) tools. In this paper, a detailed technical description of the system is provided. Included is a description of all components, component and system controls, modeling techniques, and hardware implementation.
