Abstract
A method for real-time estimation of temperatures of electric components in a power electronics system, the method including the steps of: obtaining a current reference temperature; obtaining current power loss values of the electric components; determining self-heating coefficients of the electric components for the obtained current power loss values; determining external heating coefficients of the electric components; and estimating the temperatures of the electric components in real-time based on the obtained current reference temperature, the determined self-heating coefficients and the determined external heating coefficients.
