Short-Circuit Fault Diagnosis for Three-Phase Inverters Based on Voltage-Space Patterns

Abstract

This paper introduces a fault detection and isolation (FDI) method for faulty metaloxidesemiconductor field-effect transistors in a three-phase pulsewidth-modulated (PWM) voltage source inverter. Short-circuit switch faults are the leading cause of failure in power converters. It is extremely vital to detect them in the early stages to prevent unwanted shutdown and catastrophic failures in motor drives and power generation systems. Against the …
