Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of power module fault identification, and in particular to a method, device and equipment for identifying the fault status of components in a full-bridge power module. Background Art
[0002] In a converter valve, if a full-bridge module experiences a short-circuit, the fault status of the five internal components connected in parallel to the module's ports—the bypass thyristor, the first IGBT and anti-parallel diode, the second IGBT and anti-parallel diode, the third IGBT and anti-parallel diode, and the fourth IGBT and anti-parallel diode—needs to be determined as soon as possible to determine the cause of the short circuit. Because the five internal components connected in parallel to the full-bridge module's ports are tightly crimped together with the water-cooled heat sink and insulation crimping assembly, directly measuring the full-bridge module's port impedance without disassembling the module is not sufficient to determine the fault status of each of the five internal components.
[0003] Special crimping equipment is required to disassemble the full-bridge module crimping components. This type of crimping equipment is only specially equipped in the production workshop of the converter valve manufacturer. There is no special equipment on the project site. Therefore, in this case, the faulty full-bridge module can only be transported from the project site to the manufacturer, and then the faulty full-bridge module is disassembled in the factory using special crimping equipment to obtain a single bypass thyristor, the first IGBT and anti-parallel diode, the second IGBT and anti-parallel diode, the third IGBT and anti-parallel diode, the fourth IGBT and anti-parallel diode, and then a high-precision impedance tester is used. The port impedance test is performed on each bypass thyristor, the first IGBT and anti-parallel diode, the second IGBT and anti-parallel diode, the third IGBT and anti-parallel diode, and the fourth IGBT and anti-parallel diode respectively, so as to determine the fault status of the bypass thyristor, the first IGBT and anti-parallel diode, the second IGBT and anti-parallel diode, the third IGBT and anti-parallel diode, and the fourth IGBT and anti-parallel diode. This method takes a long time to identify the faulty full-bridge module of the converter valve, and special crimping equipment must be used to disassemble the full-bridge module, which delays the fault investigation.
