摘要: 绝缘栅双极型晶体管(Insulated gate bipolar transistor,IGBT)以其高效率、大容量和低成本等特点在新能源发电及储能、高压直流输电、电力牵引和电气化交通等领域应用非常广泛。然而一旦IGBT模块发生故障,将打破相关装置和设备的正常运行状态,引发一系列连锁事故,造成人员伤害和严重的经济损失。根据一项调查统计结果,光伏电站大约34%的可靠性问题是由IGBT模块故障所引发的,因此,IGBT模块可靠性问题愈发受到关注。相关研究成果表明,IGBT模块的结温与模块可靠性问题之间存在密切的关系,如何能够快速准确地获取当前IGBT模块的实时结温是IGBT模块可靠性研究的关键。通过对IGBT模块的V-I输出特性曲线进行深入分析和研究,提出一种表征IGBT模块导通压降、结温和集电极电流关系的建模方法。利用该方法建立的表征模型可以方便快捷地提取IGBT模块结温,并通过试验验证了基于该建模方法的IGBT模块结温提取策略的有效性。除此之外,该建模方法考虑到了模块键合线老化的影响,并给出了相应的模型校正方法和结温提取策略。Abstract: Insulated gate bipolar transistor(IGBT) is widely used in fields such as new energy generation and storage, high voltage direct current transmission(HVDC), electric traction, and electrified transportation due to their high efficiency, large capacity, and low cost. However, once the IGBT module fails, it will disrupt the normal operation of related devices and equipment, causing a series of chain accidents, resulting in personal injury and serious economic losses. According to a survey, approximately 34% of reliability issues in photovoltaic power plants are caused by IGBT module failures, therefore, IGBT module reliability issues are receiving increasing attention. The related research results indicate that there is a close relationship between the junction temperature of IGBT modules and module reliability issues. How to quickly and accurately obtain the real-time junction temperature of current IGBT modules is the key to IGBT module reliability research. A modeling method is proposed for characterizing the relationship between the on-state voltage, junction temperature, and collector current of IGBT modules through in-depth analysis and research on the V-I output characteristic curve of IGBT modules. The characterization model established using this proposed method can conveniently and quickly extract the junction temperature of IGBT modules, and the effectiveness of the IGBT module junction temperature extraction strategy based on this modeling method has been verified through experiments. In addition, this modeling method takes into account the impact of module bonding wire aging and provides corresponding model calibration methods and junction temperature extraction strategies.
