The content of the paper presents the virtual construction of an electric propulsion system from the source to synchronous motor with variable speed which drives the propeller. The variable speed of the propeller is obtained by changing the frequency of the supply voltage produced by the cycloconverters (12 pulses). Electric propulsion system simulation with cycloconverter is made in Matlab Simulink, which highlights the characteristics of the synchronous motor used in naval propulsion.
