Modelling and Simulation of Variable Speed Thruster Drives with Full-Scale Verification

In this paper considerations about modelling and simulation of variable speed thruster drives are made with comparison to full scale measurements from Varg FPSO. For special purpose vessels with electric propulsion operating in DP (Dynamic Positioning) mode the thruster drives are essential for the...
