Abstract
Provided are a failure diagnosis method and apparatus for open circuit failure of a power tube of a three-phase rectifier based on a current signal, relating to a failure diagnosis technique for power electronic equipment and capable of quickly and accurately diagnosing on an open circuit failure of the power tube of the three-phase rectifier without adding a hardware component. The failure diagnosis method only requires a sampled current existing in the control system of the rectifier and some intermediate computing signals and is therefore simple and requires little computing resource. A distorted current after the open circuit failure occurs in the power tube of the rectifier and a positive/negative half cycle where the current is present when the failure occurs serve as diagnostic variables. By analyzing the sampled current, a quick diagnosis on the power tube having the open circuit failure is provided. Thus, the invention is highly applicable.
