In this paper, a method to diagnose and identify the open-circuit faults of IGBT for a six-level hybrid inverter (6L-HI) is proposed, which is based on the signals of the inner device voltages, the flying capacitor voltages and the phase currents of the inverter. Since the flying capacitor voltage sensors and the output current sensors are already employed for the inverter operation, only one additional...
To improve the reliability of modular multilevel converter (MMC), the fault submodules must be isolated rapidly. In this paper, a new fast fault diagnosis method is proposed containing two steps: fault detecting and fault locating. Fault detection step finds failures by improved predictive model which detects the fault by comparing the difference between the predictive value and the measured one of...
Fault tolerant operation can significantly improve the reliability of a Modular Multilevel Converter (MMC), but the precondition is that a fast and accurate fault detection and localization method has been embedded into the MMC control system. This paper proposes a fault diagnosis method used in a distributed control architecture, which makes the local controllers capable of identifying the switching...
