[0002] The single-tube open-circuit fault, double-tube open-circuit fault and current sensor zero output fault in the inverter have very similar manifestations in some cases. The relevant methods for diagnosing and distinguishing them are often limited to three types of methods: model-based, signal-based, and data-based. Among them, the difficulty of the signal-based method is that it requires the three-phase current, voltage signal or control signal to be fully monitored, which puts high requirements on the deployment of sensors and other devices; the difficulty of the data-based and model-based methods is that the data and training samples that meet the model training requirements need to be sufficient, but qualified training samples are often difficult to obtain.

[0072] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present application more clearly understood, the present application is further described in detail below in combination with specific embodiments and with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0073] It should be noted that, unless otherwise defined, the technical terms or scientific terms used in the embodiments of the present application should be understood by people with ordinary skills in the field to which the present application belongs. The "first", "second" and similar words used in the embodiments of the present application do not indicate any order, quantity or importance, but are only used to distinguish different components. "Include" or "comprising" and similar words mean that the elements or objects appearing before the word cover the elements or objects listed after the word and their equivalents, without excluding other elements or objects.

[0074] As described in the background technology section, the related inverter fault diagnosis method is still difficult to meet the needs of diagnosing and distinguishing various inverter faults in actual work.

[0075] In the process of implementing the present application, the applicant discovered that the main problem with the relevant inverter fault diagnosis method is that the single-tube open-circuit fault, double-tube open-circuit fault and current sensor zero output fault in the inverter manifest themselves very similarly in some cases, and the methods for diagnosing and distinguishing them are often limited to three types of methods: model-based, signal-based, and data-based. Among them, the signal-based method is difficult in that it requires that the three-phase current, voltage signal or control signal can be fully monitored, which puts high requirements on the deployment of sensors and other devices; and the data-based and model-based methods are difficult in that the data and training samples that meet the model training requirements need to be sufficient, and qualified training samples are often difficult to obtain.

[0076] The embodiments of the present application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0077] refer to Figure 1 , an inverter fault diagnosis method according to an embodiment of the present application comprises the following steps:

[0078] Step S101: Under no-fault conditions, a normal current trajectory formed by two adjacent phase currents is determined according to a normal current expression of each phase current in a three-phase AC circuit topology structure of the inverter.

[0079] In the embodiments of the present application, Figure 2 The inverter used in the train shown is used as a specific example. Figure 2The commonly used circuit topology of the inverter is shown, in which VT1, VT2, VT3, VT4, VT5 and VT6 are insulated gate bipolar transistor modules with anti-parallel diodes. By controlling the alternating conduction of the insulated gate bipolar transistor modules, the DC input voltage u dc It is converted into three-phase alternating current that can be used by the train motor M, where A, B and C represent phase A, phase B and phase C of the three-phase alternating current respectively.

[0080] Among them, the phase current i a and i b The phase current i is measured by the current sensor. c It is calculated through the other two phase currents.

[0081] It can be seen that based on Figure 2 The commonly used circuit topology of the inverter shown in the figure is a 、i b and i c They are the three-phase currents, and correspond to phase A, phase B and phase C in sequence. When there is no fault, the three-phase currents are sinusoidal waves with equal amplitudes and 120 degrees phase difference. Therefore, the normal current of each phase can be expressed in the time domain as shown below:

[0082]

[0083] In this embodiment, and They represent the normal currents of phase A, phase B and phase C in a three-phase AC circuit under normal working conditions without faults. and Respectively represent the normal current amplitude of each phase normal current, It represents the phase difference between the two adjacent phase currents of phase A and phase B, and ω represents the preset frequency.

[0084] Furthermore, based on the above-mentioned normal current expression form, the normal current trajectories of two adjacent phases can be expressed in a preset first coordinate system, that is, an xy coordinate system as follows:

[0085]

[0086] and

[0087] Wherein, x and y represent the abscissa and ordinate of the first coordinate system respectively.

[0088] Based on the above expression of the normal current trajectory, it can be seen that under fault-free conditions, two adjacent phases can form an elliptical trajectory with the center located at the first coordinate origin and a fixed inclination angle in the first coordinate system, and use it as the normal trajectory feature, where the first coordinate origin is the coordinate origin of the xy coordinate system.

[0089] In an embodiment of the present application, based on the above-mentioned inverter, the following fault diagnosis steps are performed on the single-tube open-circuit fault of the power tube (which may also be referred to as "single-tube open-circuit fault" in this embodiment), the double-tube open-circuit fault of the power tube (which may also be referred to as "double-tube open-circuit fault" in this embodiment) and the current sensor zero output fault (which may also be referred to as "current sensor fault" in this embodiment) in the inverter fault.

[0090] Specifically, it is necessary to first determine the fault trajectory model of the adjacent phase in the cases of single-tube open-circuit fault, double-tube open-circuit fault and current sensor fault, and then determine the trajectory of the adjacent phase current and its trajectory characteristics in each fault situation based on the fault trajectory model.

[0091] Step S102: Determine a first adjacent phase current expression of a faulty phase according to a first fault phase current expression of a faulty phase in a single-tube open-circuit fault of the inverter, and determine a first fault trajectory model for the single-tube open-circuit fault according to the first adjacent phase current expression.

[0092] In the embodiment of the present application, for a single-tube fault, the first fault trajectory model may be determined according to the characteristics of the single-tube fault.

[0093] Specifically, when a single-tube open-circuit fault occurs in the power tube, the current of the faulty phase can be considered to be equal to 0 within half a cycle, and if the single-tube open-circuit fault occurs in the upper bridge arm power tube, the current value of the faulty phase is non-positive, and if the single-tube open-circuit fault occurs in the lower bridge arm power tube, the current value of the faulty phase is non-negative.

[0094] Further, Figure 2 Phase A in the figure is taken as the fault phase. If a single tube open circuit fault of VT1 occurs in phase A, the Figure 2 The commonly used circuit topology under normal working conditions shown is approximately equivalent to Figure 3 The single-tube open-circuit fault circuit topology shown in the figure is Figure 3 In the figure, the structure drawn with non-solid black lines is the structure where a single-tube open-circuit fault occurs. Figure 3 In this example, the single-tube open-circuit fault occurring in phase A is referred to as VT1 fault.

[0095] Furthermore, combined with the above normal current expression, the current of the fault phase A can be expressed as:

[0096]

[0097] Among them, i a (t) represents the fault phase current, i.e., the current of phase A when VT1 fails. b (t) and i b (t) represents the two adjacent phase currents of the fault phase.

[0098] Furthermore, taking the VT1 fault of phase A as an example, the changing trend of the current of the phases adjacent to the fault, that is, the current changing trend of phases B and C, can be analyzed.

[0099] It can be seen that in the interval of ωt∈[2kπ, 2kπ+π), the three-phase inverter under the condition of VT1 fault can be approximately regarded as the normal condition of the single-phase inverter. Therefore, the B-phase current can be expressed as the first adjacent phase current expression as shown below:

[0100]

[0101] in, represents the current amplitude of the phase adjacent to the fault when VT1 fails, that is, the current amplitude of phase B, and φ represents the phase difference between the fault phase and the phase adjacent to the fault. In this embodiment, considering that there may be other unknown influencing factors under the working condition of VT1 failure, therefore, the amplitude can be is considered as a time variable.

[0102] It should be noted that the above first adjacent phase current expression can also be obtained by calculation. And, φ=-5π / 6 to determine the expression.

[0103] Furthermore, the first adjacent phase current expression also includes another fault adjacent phase, that is, phase C. In this embodiment, the current of phase C can be expressed as:

[0104]

[0105] Furthermore, in the interval of ωt∈[2kπ+π, 2kπ+2π), since the current of phase A returns to normal, the currents of phases B and C will change toward normal.

[0106] It can be seen that according to the above analysis, a model of the current trajectory when VT1 fails can be obtained, which is used as the first fault trajectory model in this embodiment and expressed by the following formula:

[0107]

[0108] It should be noted that, due to the motor M, under the condition of VT1 fault, the B phase current may still contain certain harmonics, so the above-mentioned first adjacent phase current expression and the first fault trajectory model expression may be different from the actual situation.

[0109] Step S103: Determine a second adjacent phase current expression of the faulty phase in the double-switch open-circuit fault of the inverter according to a second fault phase current expression of the faulty phase, and determine a second fault trajectory model for the double-switch open-circuit fault according to the second adjacent phase current expression.

[0110] In the embodiment of the present application, for the case of a double-tube fault, the second fault trajectory model may be determined according to the characteristics of the double-tube fault.

[0111] Specifically, in the case of a double-tube open-circuit fault, the impact of an open-circuit fault on each power tube can be considered independent of each other. Therefore, when an open-circuit fault occurs on two power tubes, it can be considered as the superposition of an open-circuit fault on a corresponding single power tube, and its current trajectory can be derived according to the logic shown below:

[0112] FAULT_VTi&VTj=FAULT_VTi∩FAULT_VTj

[0113] Among them, VT i and VT j They are two different power tubes in the inverter, FAULT_VT i and FAULT_VT j They represent the current trajectory in the first coordinate system corresponding to the power tube with an open circuit fault, and the symbol ∩ represents the FAULT_VT i The area enclosed by FAULT_VT j The enclosed area intersects, and the boundary trajectory of the area after the intersection is FAULT_VT i &VT j .

[0114] Furthermore, in combination with the above normal current expression, a similar analysis method as in the above step S102 is adopted to determine the current trajectory model during a double-tube open-circuit fault, that is, the second fault trajectory model.

[0115] Specifically, taking the upper bridge arm power tube fault and the lower bridge arm power tube fault occurring on phase A as an example, the current expression of phase A at this time can be determined as follows, that is, the current expression of the second fault phase:

[0116] i a (t)=0ωt∈[2kπ,2kπ+2π)

[0117] It can be seen that at this time, the current of phase A is always 0 in each cycle. Figure 2 The circuit topology shown can be equivalent to the following at any time after the double-tube open-circuit fault occurs: Figure 3 The single-phase inverter shown in FIG. 1 can obtain the current expressions of phases B and C, that is, the current expression of the second adjacent phase, and can be specifically expressed as:

[0118]

[0119] i c (t) = -i b (t)ωt∈[2kπ,2kπ+2π)

[0120] Furthermore, according to the above second adjacent phase current expression, the second fault trajectory model can be determined and expressed as follows:

[0121]

[0122] Step S104: determining a third adjacent phase current trajectory of a faulty adjacent phase in the current sensor failure according to an expression of a third faulty phase current of the faulty phase of the inverter in the current sensor failure.

[0123] In the embodiment of the present application, in the case of a current sensor failure, the third adjacent phase current trajectory may be determined according to the characteristics of the current sensor failure.

[0124] Specifically, when a zero output fault occurs in the current sensor, the current of the corresponding fault phase will approach 0 under the fault.

[0125] In this embodiment, taking the current sensor failure of phase A as an example, combined with the above normal current expression, the current expression of the fault phase A, that is, the third fault phase current expression can be constructed in the following form:

[0126]

[0127] Among them, t F Indicates the time when the current sensor failure occurs.

[0128] It can be seen that after the current sensor failure occurs in phase A, the current characteristics are similar to the double-tube open-circuit failure of the power tube of phase A. However, unlike the double-tube open-circuit failure, when the current sensor failure occurs, the actual current of phase A is not zero. Therefore, in the case of the current sensor failure, the circuit topology cannot be equivalent to Figure 3 Single-phase inverter shown.

[0129] It can be determined that, in the case of a current sensor failure, the B-phase current does not satisfy the second adjacent phase current expression. At the same time, since the A-phase current sensor can always feedback a zero current signal, it is very easy to cause control instability, causing the B-phase and C-phase currents to show irregular changes. Therefore, the third trajectory feature of the current trajectory of the B-phase and C-phase in the current sensor failure, that is, the third trajectory feature of the third adjacent phase current trajectory is an irregularly changing trajectory.

[0130] Step S105, respectively determine the first adjacent phase current trajectory according to the first fault trajectory model, and determine the second adjacent phase current trajectory according to the second fault trajectory model; in a preset current trajectory identification mechanism, use the first adjacent phase current trajectory, the second adjacent phase current trajectory, the third adjacent phase current trajectory and the normal current trajectory to identify the current current trajectory of each phase current in the current inverter, and determine the operating condition of the current inverter according to the identification result.

[0131] In an embodiment of the present application, the corresponding adjacent phase current trajectories can be determined respectively based on the current trajectory models under various fault conditions determined above. By combining the adjacent phase current trajectories and the normal current trajectory, the fault diagnosis of the current inverter can be performed by extracting the characteristics of each trajectory.

[0132] First, based on Figure 2 The commonly used circuit topology shown in the figure still uses phase A to generate VT i Fault as an example, we can know that in phase A VT i In the case of a fault, the first adjacent phase current expression of phase B and phase C can be further expressed as follows:

[0133]

[0134]

[0135] Furthermore, by transforming the above expression of phase C into (c) (t) Overall right shift This can be determined as:

[0136]

[0137] Furthermore, in the preset second coordinate system, that is, the mn coordinate system, let the horizontal coordinate m=i (b) (t), n = i' (c) (t), according to the above expression, the A phase VT can be expressed in the second coordinate system as i The current trajectory of the adjacent phase of the fault in the next cycle, that is, the current trajectory of the first adjacent phase, is expressed as:

[0138]

[0139] It can be seen that the first adjacent phase current trajectory is composed of multiple elliptical trajectories and circular trajectories.

[0140] Further, let φ = -5π / 6, And ignore As time goes by, in an ideal situation, the first adjacent phase current trajectory can be shown as Figure 4 The trajectory shown.

[0141] It can be seen that the first trajectory of the first adjacent phase current trajectory under a single-tube open-circuit fault is characterized by a regular but irregular closed figure, which is basically in the shape of an inverted triangle and is mainly located at Figure 4 The centers and centroids of the first, second and fourth regions in the θ deviate from the origin of the second coordinate system.

[0142] In this embodiment, based on Figure 2 The circuit topology shown in the figure still takes the double-tube open-circuit fault of phase A as an example. It can be seen that in the case of a double-tube open-circuit fault of the power tube of phase A, according to the second adjacent phase current expression in the previous step, the expression i of phase C is also converted into (c) (t) Overall right shift The current expression of phase C can be determined as:

[0143]

[0144] Furthermore, in the preset second coordinate system, mn coordinate system, let the horizontal coordinate m=i (b) (t), n = i' (c) (t), combined with the second adjacent phase current expression, the current trajectory of the adjacent phase of the A phase double-tube open-circuit fault in the next cycle, that is, the second adjacent phase current trajectory, can be expressed in the second coordinate system under ideal conditions as follows:

[0145]

[0146] Furthermore, considering is a time-varying variable. The second trajectory characteristic of the second adjacent phase current trajectory is ideally as follows: Figure 5 As shown, it can be a quasi-circular trajectory with its center at the origin of the coordinate system and periodically rotating around the origin of the coordinate system.

[0147] Furthermore, based on the above-determined trajectories under normal operating conditions and faulty operating conditions, a preset current trajectory identification mechanism may be used to identify the current current trajectory of the current inverter to be diagnosed.

[0148] Specifically, the current trajectory identification mechanism can be a classification neural network or support vector machine equipped with pattern recognition technology, or it can be an identification of the current trajectory through trajectory centroid calculation, unsupervised clustering or supervised classification.

[0149] Furthermore, for the current inverter to be diagnosed, if the current current trajectory of any phase thereof has the first trajectory feature, it can be determined that the current inverter has a single-tube open-circuit fault.

[0150] Furthermore, if any current current trajectory has the second trajectory feature, it can be determined that the current inverter has a double-switch open-circuit fault;

[0151] Furthermore, if any current current trajectory has the third trajectory feature, it can be determined that there is a current sensor fault in the current inverter;

[0152] Furthermore, if the current current trajectory has normal trajectory characteristics, it can be determined that the current inverter does not have a single-tube open-circuit fault, a double-tube open-circuit fault, or a current sensor fault.

[0153] It can be seen that the inverter fault diagnosis method of the embodiment of the present application is based on the single-tube open-circuit fault, double-tube open-circuit fault and current sensor fault of the inverter, and comprehensively considers the different current expressions of the faulty phase under different faults, and simultaneously considers the current expressions of the corresponding faulty adjacent phases to determine the faulty adjacent phase current trajectory under each fault, so that different faults can reflect different adjacent phase current trajectories, thereby effectively distinguishing the single-tube open-circuit fault, double-tube open-circuit fault and current sensor fault of the inverter.

[0154] It should be noted that the method of the embodiment of the present application can be performed by a single device, such as a computer or server. The method of this embodiment can also be applied to a distributed scenario and completed by multiple devices cooperating with each other. In the case of such a distributed scenario, one of the multiple devices can only perform one or more steps in the method of the embodiment of the present application, and the multiple devices will interact with each other to complete the described method.
