ECPE Workshop: Condition and Health Monitoring in Power Electronics

Condition and health monitoring (C&HM) is an effective means of improving the availability and controlling the life-time cost of power electronic components, converters and systems. Many solutions have been developed, but their adoption in industrial applications is still scarce. The Workshop intends to shed light on the reasons for this by favouring Industrially-motivated research and speakers.
Advanced C&HM techniques that open new possibilities for industrialisation will be presented and discussed. Their potential, limitations and implementation will be outlined and critically reviewed with the goal to benefit both industry applications and research.

A significant part of the workshop is dedicated to C&HM concerning power devices and modules, responding to the general perception that they are the least reliable with topics such as prognostics-based qualification for power electronics to predict the future reliability of the products and remaining useful lifetime methods. In-situ methods for estimation of junction temperature and use of temperature sensitive electrical parameters, crucial elements for C&HM, will be reviewed. The C&HM of other notoriously unreliable components, such as capacitors and batteries will be addressed. The needs and some results of C&HM for offshore wind parks are addressed in a dedicated section.

The workshop is chaired by:

Prof. Frede Blaabjerg, Aalborg University / Center of Reliable Power Electronics - CORPE (DK)
Dr. Stefan V. Mollov, Mitsubishi Electric R&D Centre EUROPE (FR)
Dr. Andreja Rojko, ECPE e.V. (DE)

All presentations and discussions will be in English language.
