Series connection is an attractive approach to increase the blocking voltage of SiC power MOSFETs. Currently, the voltage balancing design of the series connection of the SiC MOSFETs highly relies on offline calibration and is challenging in the complex field operation. In this paper, a quantitative model to assess the voltage balancing performance is proposed to achieve a clear mathematical interpretation of the dynamic response of the voltage imbalance control loop. To begin with, an analytical model of the drain-source voltage rising time during the turn-off transient concerning the non-constant Miller plateau is proposed. Based on the turn-off model of the single device, the voltage imbalance sensitivity (VIS) is proposed to describe the influence of the parameters on the gate driving signals on the voltage imbalance. The VIS parameter can be easily achieved from the behavior of single devices, abandoning the complex variables in series connection. Further, for the typical case, active time delay voltage balancing methods are selected to demonstrate the application of the VIS analysis method. Based on VIS, the accurate close-loop design is proposed for controlling the delayed time among the devices. The proposed analysis and method are verified in simulation and experiment. The paper offers a generalized approach to assess the performance and the design of the series connection of the SiC MOSFETs, which can be further applied in many other methods for parameter design and engineering applications.

The battery impedance is an important indicator of battery health status. In this paper, a magnetic coupling-based impedance measurement method for electrochemical batteries is proposed. Without affecting the energy injection stage, the designed suppression resistance can minimize the influence of the primary circuit response, and the under-damped oscillation waveform containing the battery impedance information can be directly obtained on the primary inductance. The change of the mutual inductance value within a certain range will not affect the measurement results. Therefore, the measurement system has high stability and robustness. By utilizing the discrete Fourier transform (DFT)-based algorithm to calculate the damped oscillation parameters, the battery impedance is accurately derived from the calculated attenuation coefficient and damped oscillation frequency. The accuracy of this method under different coupling parameters is analyzed and verified by simulation and experiment on a Li-ion battery, which could be employed to estimate the state of charge (SOC).

Current measurement is a key part of the monitoring system for power transmission lines. Compared with the conventional current sensor, the distributed, self-powered and contactless current sensor has great advantages of safety and reliability. By integrating the current sensing function and the energy harvesting function of current transformer (CT), a time-multiplexed self-powered wireless sensor that can measure the power transmission line current is presented in this paper. Two operating modes of CT, including current sensing mode and energy harvesting mode, are analyzed in detail. Through the design of mode-switching circuit, harvesting circuit and measurement circuit are isolated using only one CT secondary coil, which eliminates the interference between energy harvesting and current measurement. Thus, the accurate measurement in the current sensing mode and the maximum energy collection in the energy harvesting mode are both realized, all of which simplify the online power transmission line monitoring. The designed time-multiplexed working mode allows the sensor to work at a lower transmission line current, at the expense of a lower working frequency. Finally, the proposed sensor is verified by experiments. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, a non-contact degradation evaluation method for insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) modules is proposed based on eddy current pulsed thermography approach. In non-contact heat excitation procedures, a high-power induction heater is introduced to generate heat excitation in IGBT modules. The thermographs of the whole temperature mapping are recorded non-invasively by an IR camera. As a result, the joint degradation of IGBT modules can be evaluated by the transient thermal response curves derived from the recorded thermographs. Firstly, the non-destructive evaluation principle of the eddy current pulsed thermography (ECPT) system for an IGBT module with a heat sink is introduced. A 3D simulation module is built with physical parameters in ANSYS simulations, and then thermal propagation behavior considering the degradation impact is investigated. An experimental ECPT system is set up to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method. The experimental results show that the delay time to peak temperature can be extracted and treated as an effective indicative feature of joint degradation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Higher-voltage-standard and higher-power-rating aerospace power systems are being investigated intensively in the aerospace industry to address challenges in terms of improving emissions, fuel economy, and also cost. Multilevel converter topologies become attractive because of their higher efficiency under high-voltage and high-switching-frequency conditions. In this paper, an asymmetrical-voltage-level back-to-back multilevel converter is proposed, which consists of a five-level (5L) rectifier stage and a three-level (3L) inverter stage. Based on the comparison, such an asymmetrical back-to-back structure can achieve high efficiency and minimize the converter weight on both rectifier and inverter sides. A compact triple-surface-mounted heatsink structure is designed to realize high density and manufacturable thermal management. This topology and structure are evaluated with a full-rating prototype. According to the evaluation, the achieved power density is 2.61 kVA/kg, which is 30% higher than that of traditional solutions. The efficiency at the rated power of the back-to-back system is 95.8%.

In this paper, the impact of a double-sided press-pack insulated-gate-bipolar-transistor (PP IGBT) cooling structure on its thermal impedance distribution is studied and explored. A matrix thermal impedance network model is built by considering the multi-chip thermal coupling effect for the collector side of the PP IGBT. Moreover, a verification has been made by comparing the proposed matrix thermal network model and the conventional lumped RC network model provided by the manufacturer. It is concluded that the collector side has lower thermal resistance and dissipates about 88% of the heat generated by the IGBT chips inside the module. Then, a modular-multilevel-converter high-voltage-direct-current (MMC-HVDC)-based type test setup composed of the press-pack IGBT stacks is established and the junction temperature is calculated with the proposed thermal model and verified by temperature measurements.
