    Abstract: A propulsion system for an unmanned underwater vehicle includes a turbine engine having a combustor, a turbine, and a mechanical output shaft. The propulsion system further includes an electrical generator having a rotational input connected to the mechanical output shaft, and a poly phase electrical output. A direct current (DC) bus is connected to the poly phase electrical output via a rectifier/inverter. A DC to alternating current (AC) motor drive includes a DC input and a poly phase motor drive output, and a motor connected to the poly phase motor drive output.

    Abstract: A turbine pump assembly includes a centrifugal pump including an inlet cavity with an inlet pressure, a control section having a turbine flow rate control spool valve, a shut off biasing mechanism located at a first end of the control section, and an inlet pressure piston located at a second end of the control section, and an inlet pressure fluid line fluidly connecting the inlet cavity with the inlet pressure piston. When the inlet pressure is above a predetermined threshold, the inlet pressure is configured to maintain the turbine flow rate control spool valve in an operational mode. When the inlet pressure is below the predetermined threshold, the shut off biasing mechanism is configured to apply a closing force to disable the turbine flow rate control spool valve thereby reducing a speed of a turbine of the turbine pump assembly.

    Abstract: A power converter includes a first set of transistors electrically connected in series, a second set of transistors electrically connected in series, and an AC link. The second set of transistors is electrically connected in parallel with the first set of transistors to form an H-bridge. The AC link is electrically connected between the first and second sets of transistors. A plurality of H-bridges are connected in parallel and a three-wire DC bus is electrically connected to the H-bridges.
