Efficient heat transfer for optimal performance
Marine propulsion systems power the main propellers of a vessel, using either fully electric or hybrid-electric configurations. These systems are critical for vessel movement, energy efficiency, and emissions reduction.
Modern electric or hybrid propulsion relies on power electronics to control motor drives. These components generate significant heat during operation, requiring efficient and reliable cooling to maintain performance and avoid overheating under variable load conditions.
Cooling requirements
High-performance propulsion inverters and electric motors produce substantial heat that must be managed effectively to prevent thermal derating, component stress, or system failure. Marine vessels have tight installation spaces, especially in retrofits. Also reliability is essential in propulsion systems.
Closed-loop liquid cooling application:
A closed-loop liquid cooling system circulates coolant through propulsion inverters and motors, removing heat and transferring it to the vessel’s technical water system via a water-to-water heat exchanger. This separate closed loop ensures efficient heat transfer from the engines and motors, maintaining optimal performance and reducing thermal stress. This setup provides efficient thermal management even in compact or enclosed machinery spaces.
