These parameters will be analyzed how to affect the capacitor life and thus the life of EV PCU. Firstly, the LCR meter tester was used to test the film capacitors, but it fails to measure ESR and ESL accurately because they are too small. So, a testing method is developed to detect these parameters of the film capacitors. The test method is mainly based a function generator, a power amplifier, current sensing resistor and a 16-bit, 2MS/s/ch A/D card. The acquired data are processed through Fourier Transformation (FT) to get the accurate amplitudes and phases of both the current and voltage of the tested capacitor. The experimental results show that the developed method provides a reliable procedure to measure the characteristics of film capacitors, which can be also used to monitor the health of the film capacitor online.","PeriodicalId":230939,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE 4th International Future Energy Electronics Conference (IFEEC)","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130052685","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Partial discharge inception voltages (PDIVs) and repetitive partial discharge inception voltages (RPDIVs) of the motor winding at various rise time, switching frequencies and modulation index are tested.
