To improve energy flexibility and deal with peak energy demand in shipboard power system, a bi-directional dc/dc converter is investigated for a notional U.S. Navy Medium Voltage DC (MVDC) shipboard power system. Surplus energy due to light electric load or ship-speed variation can be captured by energy storages distributed in 800V load zones and during heavy load or black starting condition, supplied to the rest of the 5kV MVDC system through the bi-directional dc/dc converters. This paper presents the controller optimization process using the Particle Swarm Optimization for an isolated-type bi-directional dc-dc converter. The control performance of the proposed controller is evaluated using small-signal average models and a large-scale simulation of the notional U.S. Navy MVDC system using the Real-Time Digital Simulator.
