Obviously, the drawings described below are only some embodiments of this application. For those skilled in the art, other drawings can be obtained based on these drawings without creative effort.

Detailed Implementation

[0018] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0019] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this application more apparent and understandable, the application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0020] The inventors of this application discovered that the parallel physical structure of internal components in a hybrid device, along with consistent port voltages and a unified driving rhythm, means that even if one component experiences an open circuit, the other can still maintain normal conduction, preventing a noticeable interruption in the inverter's output waveform. Therefore, commonly used methods such as component voltage drop monitoring, single-transistor current detection, and switching transient comparison cannot be directly used to distinguish open-circuit faults within a hybrid device.

[0021] Therefore, given the existence of the aforementioned technical problems, such as Figure 1As shown, this application provides an open-circuit fault diagnosis method for a hybrid power device inverter power supply, which includes parallel Si IGBTs and SiCMOSFETs. The method is executed by a computer device, specifically by a terminal or server alone, or by both. The method includes the following steps S1 to S4: In step S1, the output voltage or output current of the hybrid power device inverter power supply in the current state is collected.

[0022] In step S2, frequency domain analysis is performed on the output voltage or output current of the hybrid power device inverter power supply in the current state (frequency domain analysis is performed on the output voltage or output current at a preset time interval) to obtain the amplitude of each harmonic and the total harmonic distortion rate of the hybrid power device inverter power supply in the current state, and the amplitude of each harmonic and the total harmonic distortion rate of the hybrid power device inverter power supply in the normal state are obtained.

[0023] In step S3, based on the harmonic amplitude and total harmonic distortion rate of the hybrid power device inverter power supply in the current state and normal state, the offset of the harmonic amplitude and the offset of the total harmonic distortion rate of the hybrid power device inverter power supply in the current state are obtained.

[0024] In step S4, the amplitude offset of each harmonic of the hybrid power device inverter in the current state is compared with the judgment threshold of the corresponding harmonic amplitude offset (the amplitude offset of the first harmonic is compared with the judgment threshold of the second harmonic amplitude offset, the amplitude offset of the second harmonic is compared with the judgment threshold of the second harmonic amplitude offset, and so on). The total harmonic distortion rate offset of the hybrid power device inverter in the current state is compared with the judgment threshold of the total harmonic distortion rate offset. If, within a consecutive detection period of more than or equal to a preset number of times, the amplitude offset of the same specific harmonic of the hybrid power device inverter in the current state is greater than the judgment threshold of the corresponding harmonic amplitude offset, or if the total harmonic distortion rate offset of the hybrid power device inverter in the current state is greater than the judgment threshold of the total harmonic distortion rate offset, it is determined that there is an open circuit fault in the hybrid power device inverter in the current state.

[0025] In one exemplary embodiment of this application, when any device in the hybrid power device inverter power supply is open-circuited (e.g., Si IGBT or SiC MOSFET), the reduction in the effective conducting branch will cause the hybrid power device to generate an additional equivalent dead time increment under the original driving rhythm. This change will be reflected in the output voltage or current of the hybrid power device inverter power supply as a measurable offset of a specific harmonic component. Therefore, the open-circuit fault of the hybrid power device inverter power supply can be diagnosed by measuring the offset of a specific harmonic component in the output voltage or current of the hybrid power device inverter power supply.

[0026] This application provides an open-circuit fault diagnosis method for hybrid power device inverters. The method acquires the output voltage or current of the hybrid power device inverter in its current state and performs frequency domain analysis to obtain the harmonic amplitude and total harmonic distortion (THD) of the inverter in the current state. Combining this with the obtained harmonic amplitude and THD of the inverter in its normal state, the method obtains the harmonic amplitude offset and THD offset of the inverter in its current state. The method then compares the harmonic amplitude offset with a corresponding threshold value, and compares the THD offset with a threshold value, determining whether an open-circuit fault exists in the inverter in its current state based on the comparison results. This method can efficiently and accurately diagnose open-circuit faults in hybrid power device inverters.

[0027] Below, for reference Figures 1 to 4 This application provides a detailed description of an open-circuit fault diagnosis method for hybrid power device inverter power supplies, wherein... Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating an open-circuit fault diagnosis method for a hybrid power device inverter power supply according to one embodiment of this application. Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of a hybrid power device inverter power supply according to one embodiment of this application. Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram illustrating the turn-on and turn-off timing of the Si IGBT and SiC MOSFET when the inverter power supply of the hybrid power device is in MOSFET drive mode, according to one embodiment of this application. Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of the turn-on and turn-off timing of Si IGBT and SiC MOSFET when the inverter power supply of the hybrid power device is in IGBT drive mode according to one embodiment of this application.

[0028] In one exemplary embodiment of this application, such as Figure 2As shown, the hybrid power device inverter of this application includes Si IGBTs and SiC MOSFETs connected in parallel; as an example, Figure 2 The diagram shows an N-channel Si IGBT and an N-channel enhancement-mode SiC MOSFET, wherein the collector of the N-channel Si IGBT is connected to the drain of the N-channel enhancement-mode SiC MOSFET, and the emitter of the N-channel Si IGBT is connected to the source of the N-channel enhancement-mode SiC MOSFET.

[0029] In one exemplary embodiment of this application, the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) or Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) methods can be used to perform frequency domain analysis on the acquired output voltage or output current of the hybrid power device inverter power supply in its current state. In other embodiments, equivalent digital spectrum analysis methods to the Fast Fourier Transform and Discrete Fourier Transform methods can also be used to achieve frequency domain analysis.

[0030] In one exemplary embodiment of this application, the harmonic amplitudes and total harmonic distortion (THD) of a hybrid power device inverter power supply under normal conditions can be obtained by offline or online calibration of the output voltage or output current of the hybrid power device inverter power supply under normal conditions. For example, the harmonic amplitudes and THD of the hybrid power device inverter power supply under normal conditions can be obtained by performing frequency domain analysis on the output voltage or output current of the hybrid power device inverter power supply under normal conditions.

[0031] In an exemplary embodiment of this application, the open-circuit fault diagnosis method applied to a hybrid power device inverter power supply further includes the step of setting the driving mode of the hybrid power device inverter power supply. The driving mode of the hybrid power device inverter power supply includes an IGBT driving mode and a MOSFET driving mode, wherein: when the hybrid power device inverter power supply is in the IGBT driving mode, the Si IGBT is turned on first and then turned off compared to the SiC MOSFET; when the hybrid power device inverter power supply is in the MOSFET driving mode, the SiC MOSFET is turned on first and then turned off compared to the Si IGBT.

[0032] In an exemplary embodiment of this application, the turn-on and turn-off timings of Si IGBT and SiC MOSFET when the hybrid power device inverter power supply is in MOSFET drive mode and the turn-on and turn-off timings of Si IGBT and SiC MOSFET when the hybrid power device inverter power supply is in IGBT drive mode are respectively as follows: Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, where, t Indicates time, t on t on1 These represent the MOSFET drive mode and the IGBT drive mode, respectively. t off t off1 These represent the turn-off delay times for MOSFET drive mode and IGBT drive mode, respectively. S SiC and S Si These represent the drive voltages of the SiC MOSFET and the Si IGBT, respectively.

[0033] In an exemplary embodiment of this application, taking a preset number of three times as an example, if within three or more consecutive detection cycles, the amplitude offset of the same specific harmonic in the current state of the hybrid power device inverter is greater than the determination threshold of the corresponding harmonic amplitude offset (for example, the amplitude offset of the first harmonic in the current state of the hybrid power device inverter is greater than the determination threshold of the first harmonic amplitude offset). k The amplitude offset of each harmonic is greater than that of the first harmonic. k If the total harmonic distortion rate (THR) offset of the hybrid power device inverter in the current state is greater than the THR offset threshold, it is determined that the hybrid power device inverter has an open circuit fault in the current state. For example, in each detection cycle, the THR offset and THR offset of the hybrid power device inverter in the current state are acquired once.

[0034] In one exemplary embodiment of this application, the threshold values ​​for determining the amplitude offset of each harmonic and the threshold values ​​for determining the total harmonic distortion rate offset can be preset or adaptively set based on the operating data of the hybrid power device inverter power supply under normal conditions and the allowable power quality fluctuation range.

[0035] In an exemplary embodiment of this application, when it is determined that the hybrid power device inverter power supply has an open-circuit fault in the current state, if the hybrid power device inverter power supply is in IGBT driving mode, it is determined that the Si IGBT has an open-circuit fault in the current state; if the hybrid power device inverter power supply is in MOSFET driving mode, it is determined that the SiC MOSFET has an open-circuit fault in the current state. That is, if, within a consecutive detection period of more than or equal to a preset number of times, the amplitude offset of the same specific harmonic in the current state of the hybrid power device inverter power supply is greater than the determination threshold of the corresponding harmonic amplitude offset, or if the total harmonic distortion rate offset of the hybrid power device inverter power supply in the current state is greater than the determination threshold of the total harmonic distortion rate offset, it is determined that the hybrid power device inverter power supply has an open-circuit fault in the current state. At this time, if the hybrid power device inverter power supply is in IGBT driving mode, it can be further determined that the Si IGBT has an open-circuit fault in the current state; if the hybrid power device inverter power supply is in MOSFET driving mode, it can be further determined that the SiC MOSFET has an open-circuit fault in the current state.

[0036] In one exemplary embodiment of this application, by diagnosing Si IGBT open-circuit faults when the hybrid power device inverter power supply is in the IGBT drive mode where Si IGBT is turned on first and then turned off, and diagnosing SiC MOSFET open-circuit faults when the hybrid power device inverter power supply is in the MOSFET drive mode where SiC MOSFET is turned on first and then turned off, it is possible to make the open-circuit faults of different devices exhibit distinguishable harmonic offset characteristics.

[0037] In one exemplary embodiment of this application, setting the driving mode of the hybrid power device inverter includes: acquiring the output current of the hybrid power device inverter in the current state; when the acquired output current of the hybrid power device inverter in the current state is less than a current threshold, setting the driving mode of the hybrid power device inverter to IGBT driving mode; and when the acquired output current of the hybrid power device inverter in the current state is greater than or equal to the current threshold, setting the driving mode of the hybrid power device inverter to MOSFET driving mode. In other words, when the output current of the hybrid power device inverter is in the low current range (less than the current threshold), the inverter is set to IGBT drive mode where the Si IGBT is turned on first and then turned off. The Si IGBT dominates the conduction process in the low current range to enhance the harmonic response to Si IGBT open-circuit faults. When the output current of the hybrid power device inverter is in the high current range (greater than or equal to the current threshold), the inverter is set to MOSFET drive mode where the SiC MOSFET is turned on first and then turned off. The SiC MOSFET dominates the conduction process in the high current range to enhance the harmonic response to SiC MOSFET open-circuit faults. This way, by maximizing the harmonic offset characteristics of Si IGBTs and SiC MOSFETs when they are open-circuited in their dominant ranges, the distinguishable identification of Si IGBT and SiC MOSFET open-circuit faults is achieved.

[0038] In one exemplary embodiment of this application, the determination thresholds for the amplitude offset of each harmonic and the total harmonic distortion rate offset can be set separately under the driving modes (MOSFET driving mode and IGBT driving mode) corresponding to different current ranges. That is, the determination thresholds for the amplitude offset of each harmonic and the total harmonic distortion rate offset can be different under the driving modes corresponding to different current ranges, so as to ensure the predictability and repeatability of fault type diagnosis. This application does not impose any restrictions on this.

[0039] In an exemplary embodiment of this application, based on the harmonic amplitudes and total harmonic distortion (THD) of the hybrid power device inverter power supply in the current state and normal state, the offsets of the harmonic amplitudes and THD of the hybrid power device inverter power supply in the current state are obtained, including: obtaining the offsets of the harmonic amplitudes and THD of the hybrid power device inverter power supply in the current state using formulas (1) and (2), respectively: (1) (2) in, This indicates the state of the hybrid power device inverter power supply in the current state. Second harmonic amplitude offset This indicates the state of the hybrid power device inverter power supply in the current state. Second harmonic amplitude This indicates the first state of the hybrid power device inverter power supply under normal conditions. Second harmonic amplitude This represents the total harmonic distortion rate offset of the hybrid power device inverter power supply in the current state. This represents the total harmonic distortion (THD) of the hybrid power device inverter power supply in its current state. It represents the total harmonic distortion rate of a hybrid power device inverter power supply under normal conditions.

[0040] In one exemplary embodiment of this application, the hybrid power device inverter power supply includes multiple operating conditions, including but not limited to no-load, load-bearing, grid-connected, and off-grid operating conditions. When the hybrid power device inverter power supply includes multiple operating conditions, in the step of obtaining the harmonic amplitude offset and total harmonic distortion rate offset of the hybrid power device inverter power supply in the current state, the harmonic amplitude offset and total harmonic distortion rate offset of the hybrid power device inverter power supply in the current state under each operating condition are obtained based on the harmonic amplitude and total harmonic distortion rate of the hybrid power device inverter power supply in the current state under each operating condition and the normal state under the corresponding operating condition.

[0041] In an exemplary embodiment of this application, based on the harmonic amplitude and total harmonic distortion (THD) of the hybrid power device inverter power supply in the current state and normal state, the offset of the harmonic amplitude and THD of the hybrid power device inverter power supply in the current state are obtained, including: obtaining the offset of the harmonic amplitude and THD of the hybrid power device inverter power supply in the current state under different operating conditions using formulas (3) and (4), respectively: (3) (4) in, Indicates the hybrid power device inverter power supply in the first... The current state under the various operating conditions Second harmonic amplitude offset Indicates the hybrid power device inverter power supply in the first... The current state under the various operating conditions Second harmonic amplitude Indicates the hybrid power device inverter power supply in the first... The first normal state under certain operating conditions Second harmonic amplitude Indicates the hybrid power device inverter power supply in the first... Total harmonic distortion rate offset under various operating conditions in the current state. Indicates the hybrid power device inverter power supply in the first... Total harmonic distortion (THD) under the current operating conditions Indicates the hybrid power device inverter power supply in the first... Total harmonic distortion rate under normal operating conditions.

[0042] In this way, by using the normalization method of the above formulas (3) and (4) to process the amplitude offset of each harmonic and the total harmonic distortion rate offset across operating conditions, the differences in harmonic references (i.e., the judgment thresholds of amplitude offset of each harmonic and total harmonic distortion rate offset) under different operating conditions can be eliminated.

[0043] In an exemplary embodiment of this application, the threshold values ​​for determining the amplitude offset of the same harmonic under different operating conditions of the hybrid power device inverter are equal, and the threshold values ​​for determining the total harmonic distortion rate offset of the hybrid power device inverter under different operating conditions are equal. Exemplarily, through the above-described normalization process, it is possible to set the threshold values ​​for determining the amplitude offset of the same harmonic under different operating conditions and the threshold values ​​for determining the total harmonic distortion rate offset of the hybrid power device inverter under different operating conditions to be equal. This avoids the need to set different threshold values ​​for determining the amplitude offset of each harmonic and the total harmonic distortion rate offset separately for each operating condition, improves diagnostic efficiency, and maintains the comparability of diagnostic features between different operating conditions. For example, the determination thresholds for the same harmonic amplitude offset under different operating conditions and the determination thresholds for the total harmonic distortion rate offset under different operating conditions of the hybrid power device inverter power supply are equal, which means that the determination thresholds for the same harmonic amplitude offset and the determination thresholds for the total harmonic distortion rate offset are equal under different operating conditions in the same driving mode.

[0044] In one exemplary embodiment of this application, the first The threshold for determining the amplitude offset of the subharmonic is expressed as follows: The threshold for determining total harmonic distortion is expressed as: ,Will (or )and Compare and (or )and A comparison is made to diagnose whether an open-circuit fault exists in the hybrid power device inverter power supply. Furthermore, based on the driving mode of the hybrid power device inverter power supply, an open-circuit fault is diagnosed in the Si IGBT or SiC MOSFET within the hybrid power device inverter power supply.

[0045] This concludes the description of the key steps of the open-circuit fault diagnosis method for hybrid power device inverter power supplies of this application. The complete open-circuit fault diagnosis method for hybrid power device inverter power supplies may also include other steps, which will not be elaborated here. It is worth mentioning that the order of the above steps can be adjusted without conflict.

[0046] In summary, the open-circuit fault diagnosis method for hybrid power device inverters of this application acquires the output voltage or current of the hybrid power device inverter in its current state, performs frequency domain analysis on the output voltage or current in the current state to obtain the amplitude of each harmonic and the total harmonic distortion (THD) of the hybrid power device inverter in the current state, and combines the obtained amplitude of each harmonic and THD of the hybrid power device inverter in the normal state to obtain the amplitude offset of each harmonic and the THD offset of the hybrid power device inverter in the current state. The method then compares the amplitude offset of each harmonic in the current state with the corresponding threshold values ​​for the amplitude offset of the harmonic, and compares the THD offset of the hybrid power device inverter in the current state with the threshold values ​​for the THD offset of the THD offset, and determines whether an open-circuit fault exists in the hybrid power device inverter in the current state based on the comparison results. This method can efficiently and accurately diagnose whether an open-circuit fault exists in a hybrid power device inverter.
