Unequal thermal stress among the phase legs of a multiphase converter leads to a reduction in the useful lifespan and reliability of that converter in general. Increasing the converter’s lifespan by relieving the stressed phase leg, which suffers excessive thermal stress due to aging, is crucial. This paper evaluates two control concepts, including two per-phase model predictive control methods for extending the lifespan of a voltage source inverter. These two per-phase techniques alter the switching pattern to reduce the losses of the most aged phase leg. Hence, the loss and the corresponding thermal stress of the leg that has aged the most are reduced. In such a way, the lifespan and reliability of the converter are prolonged. Two per-phase model predictive control techniques are executed in both simulation and experiment environments, where the corresponding results are provided to evaluate the behavior of these control strategies, considering several operational aspects both in steady state and transient operation. In addition to static load conditions, two per-phase techniques are verified for the correct operation under dynamic load (induction motor) conditions. |
