Marine Propulsion: Electrical Drives Characteristics (module 4)
The training series Marine Propulsion Systems is a unique technical and international oriented series of training modules. It is developed for those who wish to acquire in-depth knowledge of the design of different marine propulsion systems. When you have completed the module ‘Electrical Drive Characteristics’, you will be able to decide which type of electrical drive component and/or system will be suited best for a particular vessel design. The theory is practiced by means of exercises. Meld je aan

During the fourth module ‘Electrical Drives Characteristics’ several concepts of electrical drive systems and their main components will be discussed.
For whom?
This module is intended for designers and (sales) engineers who deal with the integration or the design of marine propulsion systems and in particular electrical propulsion during concept design phase. It will also be of interest to people who come across aspects of these systems during their (daily) work and who wish to learn more about the working principle of marine electrical propulsion systems.
Costs (excl. VAT)
- Members € 1.375,-
- Non-members € 1.735,-
This training is part of the training series Marine Propulsion, a unique technical and internationally orientated training about the design of several propulsion systems. This module can be attended separately from the other modules (1-3).
Date and location
