| 摘要 |
The present invention relates to a method of operating a dual fed system where power is supplied to a electrical load (T1) from first and second ac busbars (2a, 2b) at a ratio that achieves a desired level of exhaust emissions such as nitrogen oxides (NO x ), carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) and other pollutants produced by the prime movers (D1-D4) associated with generators (G1-G4). Preferably, the method may be used to operate a dual fed marine propulsion system wherein the electrical load (T1) is a thruster. Operating a dual fed marine propulsion system using the method of the present invention makes it possible to optimise thrust allocation between thrusters (T1-T4) in a way that is similar to that used in conventional dynamic positioning (DP) systems and then share or allocate the required power between generators (G1-G4) to minimise exhaust emissions. |
