Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of power electronic systems technology, specifically to a method for testing the insulation resistance of IGBT modules. Background Technology

[0002] As a key component in power electronic systems, the insulation performance of IGBT (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor) modules directly affects the safety and reliability of the entire system. In practical applications, IGBT modules often operate in complex and variable environments, such as different temperatures, humidity levels, and air pressures, where environmental factors can significantly impact their insulation resistance.

[0003] In the existing technology, insulation resistance testing methods are mainly divided into the following categories: Fixed voltage instantaneous test method: A single fixed voltage (such as 500V or 1000V) is applied to the IGBT module, and the leakage current is measured and the insulation resistance is calculated within a short time (usually 10-15s). This method is simple to operate and fast, and is widely used in rapid sampling inspection on production lines. However, it does not consider the dynamic effect of voltage stress on insulation performance and is difficult to reflect the insulation characteristics of the module under different voltage levels. Multi-voltage segmented testing method: This method tests using 2-3 discrete voltage values. While it expands the voltage coverage to some extent, the voltage settings lack a systematic pattern and do not adaptively adjust for the rated voltage of the IGBT module, resulting in insufficient testing specificity for high-rated voltage modules. The constant environment test method: The test is conducted in a constant temperature and humidity chamber, which ignores the fluctuation characteristics of environmental parameters in actual applications and does not establish a quantitative correlation model between environmental error and insulation resistance. Therefore, the test results deviate from the actual working conditions. Simplified error control method: Only the voltage source and ammeter are calibrated periodically, without considering the influence of the test line resistance, contact resistance and stray capacitance. Especially in high voltage test (≥1500V) scenarios, the leakage current measurement error often exceeds ±3%, resulting in insufficient accuracy of insulation resistance calculation. Traditional insulation resistance testing methods do not fully consider the interference of environmental variables on the test results, and the control precision of measurement errors during the testing process is insufficient. Furthermore, existing technologies often lack systematic error analysis and correction methods, and the judgment of insulation performance is based only on a single time point or simple indicators, making it difficult to comprehensively and accurately assess the long-term insulation stability of IGBT modules under different operating conditions. With the development of power electronics technology, the performance requirements of IGBT modules are constantly increasing, urgently requiring a testing method that can accurately measure and comprehensively evaluate insulation resistance, and effectively eliminate interference from environmental and measurement errors. Summary of the Invention

The error of the current measuring instrument... The absolute value does not exceed 1%, which greatly improves the accuracy of insulation resistance calculation.

[0025] Following step S4, an environmental parameter error correction step is included: an environmental error correction model is established experimentally to correct the insulation resistance measurement value. The correction model is as follows: ,in , and These are the error correction factors for temperature, humidity, and air pressure, respectively. The correction factors are determined through calibration experiments on standard resistors.

[0026] An environmental error correction model is established, and the measured values ​​are corrected based on the temperature, humidity, and air pressure correction coefficients determined by experiments. This effectively eliminates the influence of environmental factors on insulation resistance measurement, making the test results more consistent with the actual insulation condition of the IGBT module during operation.

[0033] A four-tiered judgment logic was constructed, which proceeds from test environment judgment, preliminary insulation performance assessment, insulation stability analysis to long-term stability testing, to gradually and comprehensively determine the insulation performance of IGBT modules, greatly improving the accuracy and reliability of insulation performance assessment and enabling timely detection of potential insulation anomalies and long-term stability issues.

Activate the automatic calibration function of the environmental conditioning equipment and the closed-loop feedback control of the voltage source. Stray capacitance compensation is performed for high-voltage testing scenarios.

[0044] It is important to emphasize that environmental control equipment should periodically and automatically calibrate sensors to ensure that measurement errors meet the requirements. Absolute value ≤ 0.5℃ Absolute value ≤ 2%, Absolute value ≤30Pa; the test voltage source uses closed-loop feedback control to minimize output error. The absolute value is ≤0.2%; the leakage current measurement adopts the sampling averaging method of no less than 10 times.

The absolute value of the compensation error is ≤0.5%; the time node error is compensated. By incorporating the descent rate error calculation, the corrected rate error is obtained. Simultaneously, error analysis data, including raw data, error parameters, and correction records, is stored in real time for a period of no less than 3 years.
