2. Integrated electric propulsion - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integrated_electric_propulsion

   An example of integrated electric propulsion in the Type 45 destroyer (GT: gas turbine; DG: diesel generator) Integrated electric propulsion (IEP), full electric propulsion (FEP) or integrated full electric propulsion (IFEP) is an arrangement of marine propulsion systems such that gas turbines or diesel generators or both generate three-phase [1] electricity which is then used to power ...

3. Diesel–electric powertrain - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diesel–electric_powertrain

   Diesel–electric transmission is used on railways by diesel–electric locomotives and diesel–electric multiple units, as electric motors are able to supply full torque from 0 RPM. Diesel–electric systems are also used in marine transport , including submarines, and on some other land vehicles.

4. Combined diesel–electric and gas - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combined_diesel–electric...

   Principle of a CODLAG propulsion system. Combined diesel–electric and gas (CODLAG) is a modification of the combined diesel and gas propulsion system for ships.A variant, called the combined diesel–electric or gas (CODLOG) system, contains the same basic elements but will not allow simultaneous use of the alternative drive sources.

5. Azipod - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Azipod

   In the conventional azimuth thrusters such as Z-drive and L-drive thrusters, the propeller is driven by an electric motor or a diesel engine inside the ship's hull. The propeller is coupled to the prime mover with shafts and bevel gears that allow rotating the propeller about a vertical axis. This type of propulsion system has a long tradition ...

6. Marine propulsion - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marine_propulsion

   Turbo-electric transmission uses electric generators to convert the mechanical energy of a turbine (steam or gas) into electric energy and electric motors to convert it back into mechanical energy to power the driveshafts. An advantage of turbo-electric transmission is that it allows the combination of high-speed turbines with slow turning ...

7. Combined diesel-electric and diesel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combined_diesel-electric...

   The CODLAD propulsion system is based on the use of electric motors directly connected to the axes (generally two) of the propellers. The electric motors are powered by diesel generators and to have higher speeds, as happens in CODAD propulsion systems, the higher power diesel engine is inserted which is disconnected from the transmission system to return to cruising speed.

8. Revo Powertrains - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Revo_Powertrains

   It is a high-power medium-duty vehicle powertrain that uses electric drive with an onboard power station for efficiency and range. This is a series hybrid retrofit kit for trucks. The kit includes controls, 200 kW inverter, electric motors, gearbox with clutchless shifting, battery pack, battery management system, and LCD user interface.

9. Magnetohydrodynamic drive - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetohydrodynamic_drive

   Yamato 1 on display in Kobe, Japan.The first working full-scale MHD ship. A magnetohydrodynamic drive or MHD accelerator is a method for propelling vehicles using only electric and magnetic fields with no moving parts, accelerating an electrically conductive propellant (liquid or gas) with magnetohydrodynamics.
