LLC DC–DC converter is considered here to predict the DC-Link capacitor values. Model can predict the changes in capacitance. There is no need of any additional sensor circuits like other methods in the existing techniques. Hence the investment is less, and the implementation time is less with minimal effort.
Capacitor condition monitoring methods Sensor-based methods use direct sensors to measure the voltage and current information to obtain the capacitance and ESR [ 5 ]. In addition, external signals may be injected at a specific frequency to get the voltage and current information.
Data Driven Methods gives promising results in condition monitoring of capacitors. Capacitors are an important component of power conversion systems because they affect the cost, size, performance, and range of such systems. However, capacitors have the highest degradation and failure rates of any power converter component.
Capacitor degradation curves shown in Fig. 3 indicate that ESR and capacitance values are the best indicators of the capacitor's end of life [ 9, 12 ]. The widely accepted capacitance values include 20% reduction in capacitance and double of ESR value from the initial specification [ 7, 9, 12, 13 ].
Utilizing the least mean square (LMS) algorithm to estimate the ESR and the capacitance of the capacitor and by comparing this with the initial capacitor values at the current operating temperature, the health status of the system can be deduced.
