Power losses in PWM-VSI inverter using NPT or PT IGBT devices

Blaabjerg, F., Jaeger, U., Munk-Nielsen, S.·1995·IEEE Transactions on Power Electronics

Abstract

This paper investigates the power losses for two different IGBT technologies (nonpunch through and punch through) for use in PWM-VSI inverters in order to choose the right device technology for a given application. A loss model of the inverter is developed based on experimental determination of the power losses. The loss model is used on two different modulation strategies which are a sine wave with a third harmonic added and a 60/spl deg/-PWM modulation where only two inverter legs are active at the same time. The two IGBT technologies are characterized on an advanced measurement system which is described. The total power losses in the inverter are estimated by simulation at different conditions and it is concluded that the nonpunch through (NPT) technology is most useful for higher switching frequencies, while the punch through (PT) technology is especially useful at lower switching frequencies and high load currents. It is also concluded that the 60/spl deg/-PWM modulation has the lowest power losses and the power losses are almost independent of phase angle cos(/spl phi/) for normal motor operation.>

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
