AI Customer ServiceChallenges in condition monitoring of capacitors Despite the existence of established and emerging methods, condition monitoring of capacitors presents its own challenges. The main challenge is the degradation mechanisms of the capacitor which involves the factors such as temperature, stress, humidity, aging and others.
Most of the condition monitoring methods for both single capacitors and capacitor banks are based on the estimation of capacitance C and equivalent series resistance (ESR), which are indicators of capacitor degradation .
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.
A single capacitor or a bank of capacitors are frequently used as the filters at the DC side. Hence, the condition monitoring of capacitors is essential in order to maintain high-performance converters.
A DC link capacitor condition monitoring technique for medium and high power AC-DC-AC PWM converters based on a designed variable electrical network (VEN) is proposed in . Several capacitors are connected in series as a capacitor bank to maintain the required intermediate circuit voltage.
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.
