Abstract
The converter with a single-phase rectifier, a dc-link circuit and a three-phase inverter is widely applied in high-speed railway electrical traction drive system. The fault frequency of single-phase rectifier is higher than that of three-phase inverter. Thus, this paper presents a new and fast model-based approach for open-switch fault diagnosis of the single-phase pulse width modulation rectifier, based on the mixed logical dynamic model and residual generation. It requires no additional hardware but only some measurements and command signals which are available in control system. This diagnosis method is quite suitable for electrical traction application due to the fast diagnosis time, simple structure and high reliability. Experimental results confirm the effectiveness and accuracy of the proposed algorithm. It is shown that such diagnosis method can locate the faulty switch in a few milliseconds which is important to avoid catastrophic consequences.
