Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of fault diagnosis technology, and relates to a fault diagnosis method for a multi-electric aircraft static converter, and more particularly to a fault diagnosis method for a multi-electric aircraft static converter based on an adaptive interval sliding mode observer. Background Technology

[0002] In aircraft secondary power systems, static converters convert electrical energy from generators or aviation batteries into alternating current to provide reliable power to onboard electrical equipment, making them an indispensable component of the aviation power system. The safe and stable operation of the aircraft's electrical equipment also depends on the high reliability of the power supply system; a power system failure can result in enormous losses. Static converters have a complex structure with numerous power electronic components, leading to an increased failure rate during operation. Therefore, to ensure the reliability of static converters in actual operation, rapid and accurate diagnosis of switching transistor faults is essential.

[0003] The faults of the switching transistors in a static converter are mainly divided into short-circuit faults and open-circuit faults. The short-circuit fault of the switching transistor is protected by the protection circuit. When a short-circuit fault occurs in the system, the protection circuit quickly disconnects, eventually converting the short-circuit fault of the switching transistor into an open-circuit fault. Since the short-circuit fault is short-lived and will quickly convert into an open-circuit fault, we only consider diagnosing the open-circuit fault of the switching transistor in the static converter.

[0004] Currently, fault diagnosis techniques for static converters can be broadly categorized as follows:

[0005] 1. Signal Feature-Based Methods. These methods primarily analyze the circuit's operating state, sampling the inverter's voltage or current signals and extracting fault features to obtain diagnostic results. Specific related papers include "Open-Circuit Fault Diagnosis and Fault-Tolerant Control for a Grid-Connected NPCInverter" and "A real-time multiple open-circuit fault diagnosis method in voltage-source-inverter fed vector controlled drives." However, these methods suffer from slow diagnostic time and difficulty in resisting interference caused by load changes.

[0006] 2. Circuit Model-Based Methods. These methods primarily obtain estimates of specific voltage or current signals by building a circuit model, and then compare these estimates with measured reference values ​​to detect and locate faults. Specific related papers include "Fast Transistor Open-Circuit Faults Diagnosis in Grid-Tied Three-Phase VSIs Based on Average Bridge Arm Pole-to-Pole Voltages and Error-Adaptive Thresholds" and "Multiple open-circuit faults diagnosis in back-to-back converters of PMSG drives for wind turbine systems." However, these methods suffer from drawbacks such as high requirements for mathematical models and poor robustness.

[0007] 3. Data-driven methods. These methods primarily involve mining large amounts of online and offline data, analyzing and training the data to obtain diagnostic results. Specific related papers include "A data-driven fault diagnosis methodology in Three-Phase inverters for PMSM drive systems" and "Combining a HMM with a genetic algorithm for the fault diagnosis of photovoltaic inverters." However, these methods suffer from high computational complexity, algorithmic complexity, and demanding hardware requirements.

[0008] In summary, existing technologies suffer from problems such as slow diagnostic time, high computational load, complex algorithms, high requirements for mathematical models, and poor robustness. Summary of the Invention
