Les convertisseurs DC-DC suscitent un intérêt considérable en raison de leur puissance élevée et de leurs bonnes performances. Ils sont particulièrement utiles dans les systèmes multisources de production d'énergie électrique. Toutefois, en raison du grand nombre de composants sensibles utilisés dans ces circuits et comprenant des semi-conducteurs de puissance, des bobines et des condensateurs, une probabilité non négligeable de défaillance des composants doit être prise en compte. Cette thèse considère l'un des convertisseurs DC-DC les plus prometteurs - le convertisseur ZVS à pont isolé de type Buck. Une approche en deux étapes est présentée pour détecter et isoler les défauts en circuit ouvert dans les semi-conducteurs de puissance des convertisseurs DC-DC. La première étape concerne la détection et la localisation des défauts dans un convertisseur donne. La seconde étape concerne sur les systèmes munis de plusieurs convertisseurs DC-DC. Les méthodes proposées sont basées sur les réseaux Bayesiens (BBN). Les signaux utilisés dans ces méthodes sont ceux des entrées de mesure du système de commande et aucune mesure supplémentaire n'est requise. Un convertisseur expérimental ZVS à pont isolé de type Buck a été conçu et construit pour valider la détection et la localisation des défauts Sur un seul convertisseur. Ces méthodes peuvent être étendues à d'autres types de convertisseurs DC-DC. / DC-DC converters have received significant interest recently as a result of their high power capabilities and good power quality. They are of particular interest in systems with multiple sources of energy. However due to the large number of sensitive components including power semiconductor devices, coils, and capacitors used in such circuits there is a high likelihood of component failure. This thesis considers one of the most promising DC-DC converters—the ZVS full bridge isolated Buck converter. An approach with two stages is presented to detect and isolate opencircuit faults in the power semiconductor devices in systems with DC-DC converters. The first stage is the fault detection and isolation for a single DC-DC converter, while the second stage works on a system with multiple DC-DC converters. The proposed methods are based on Bayesian Belief Network (BBN). The signals used in the proposed methods are already available as measurement inputs to control system and no additional measurements are required. An experimental ZVS full bridge isolated Buck converter has been designed and built to validate the fault detection and isolation method on a single converter. The methods can be used with other DC-DC converter typologies employing similar analysis and principals.

A detecção da falha é necessária para preservar o desempenho do conversor por um maior tempo possível. Este trabalho investiga a capacidade de tolerância a falhas do inversor e retifi cador ANPC (Active Neutral Point Clamped ) de três níveis modi ficado, quando suas chaves são submetidas a falhas de circuito aberto e curto circuito. Com o objetivo de melhorar o comportamento do conversor quando da falha de uma chave, foram introduzidos tiristores adicionais, um para cada chave do braço do inversor, e fusíveis em série com as chaves de grampeamento. São apresentados métodos para detecção e identi ficação de falhas juntamente com esquemas de reconfi gurações para trinta tipos de falhas. Resultados de simulação e experimentais corroboram os estudo teóricos de operação dos conversores. Os resultados de simulação são obtidos a partir do software PSIM, enquanto os resultados experimentais são obtidos a partir de uma plataforma de desenvolvimento experimental controlado pelo processador digital de sinais TMS320F28335. / The power electronics equipment reliability is a very important aspect from the energy e -ciency point of view. So, fault detection and its compensation, becomes extremely necessary for maintaining the process under fault condition near normal operation for a period of time as long as possible. This work investigates the fault-tolerant capacity of a modi ed three-level ANPC (Active Neutral Point Clamped) inverter and recti er when its switches are submitted to open and short-circuit failures. Additional thyristors, one for each inverter main switch, and fuses in series with the clamping switches have been introduced in order to improve the converter behavior when a switch fails. Fault detection and identi cation methods are presented together with con gured schemes for thirty types of failures. Simulation and experimental results are presented in order to con rm the validity of the proposed solutions, the simulation results are obtained from the software PSIM, whereas the experimental results are obtained from one experimental development platform controlled by a digital signal processor TMS320F28335.
