Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of power electronics, and in particular relates to a method for calculating on-state loss of a power module of a modularized multilevel converter. Background technique
[0002] Modular Multilevel Converter (MMC) has been gradually used in flexible direct current transmission systems. It has the characteristics of flexible control, low switching frequency, and low harmonic content on the AC side. Currently, based on this technology, it is under construction The maximum transmission capacity of Zhangbei Rouzhi Project has reached ±500kV, 3000MW. The loss calculation of the converter power module is not only the basis of the heat dissipation design of the converter, but also used to measure the performance of the flexible DC transmission system.
[0003] MMC uses insulated gate bipolar transistor (insulated gate bipolar transistor, IGBT) as the core device, and the loss of MMC mainly includes the loss of power...
