The number of commercial ships with electric propulsion is in continuous increase due to their versatility and fuel efficiency. Total harmonic distortion consequences on marine electrical power systems will be discussed. This paper aims to highlight the need for harmonic filter implementation on electric propulsion with static converters. For this study, a simulation in Matlab Simulink will reveal the effect of electrical filters on THD and voltage end current waveforms.
