On Methodology for Verification, Validation and Uncertainty Quantification in Power Electronic Converters Modeling

This thesis provides insight into quantitative accuracy assessment of the modeling and simulation of power electronic converters. Verification, Validation, and Uncertainty quantification (VVandUQ) provides a means to quantify the disagreement between computational simulation results and experimental results in order to have quantitative comparisons instead of qualitative comparisons. Due to the broad applications of modeling and simulation in power electronics, VVandUQ is used to evaluate the credibility of modeling and simulation results. The topic of VVandUQ needs to be studied exclusively for power electronic converters. To carry out this work, the formal procedure for VVandUQ of power electronic converters is presented. The definition of the fundamental words in the proposed framework is also provided.

The accuracy of the switching model of a three-phase Voltage Source Inverter (VSI) is quantitatively assessed following the proposed procedure. Accordingly, this thesis describes the hardware design and development of the switching model of the three-phase VSI. / Master of Science
