The objective of a study program on deep ocean power transmission systems was to determine the technical and economic feasibility of transmitting electrical power of 30, 100, 300, 1,000, and 3,000 kw to ocean depths of 600, 2,000, 6,000, 10,000, 15,000, and 20,000 feet. Environmental conditions of the sea and their effects on the elements of an undersea power system are discussed. Various power system concepts are developed and evaluated ...
The need for uninterruptible power supply systems at Naval shore activities has increased tremendously. One or two basic concepts have been used in the development of large (uninterruptible power) systems currently in operation. The difficulties encountered and the increasing demand for continuity of electrical power have made it necessary to re-evaluate the basic system requirements and to establish definitive criteria for the development and application of these systems. This report ...
