6 FAQs about [Capacitor busbar and branch line]
How do you connect a capacitor to a bus bar?
The most common and easiest connection method for a capacitor onto a bus bar is a screw or bolt on connection. Soldering or spot welding connection methods can also be used, but they greatly increase the cost and complexity of the design. In sum, the bus bar design starts along with the power electronics converter design.
What is the role of a busbar in a high-power converter?
The role of a busbar in a high-power converter is to link the main components in a power electronic converter to form a high-current, high-insulation, and high-frequency commutation loop with very low busbar impedance. Major components connected through the busbar include power semiconductor devices, DC link capacitors, and high-power connectors.
What components are connected through a busbar?
Major components connected through the busbar include power semiconductor devices, DC link capacitors, and high-power connectors. In the high-power converters based on WBG devices, the busbar also needs to connect the decoupling capacitor to achieve a higher level of system integration.
Why does a bus bar have a high frequency capacitor?
The laminated structure of the bus bar creates a high frequency capacitor that helps mitigate the noise propagation , , though this unintended filter is likely not enough to completely remove the issue. An unavoidable result of fast switching devices is the high frequency harmonics, termed Electromagnetic Interfer-ence (EMI) .
Does a multi-capacitor parallel busbar affect the instantaneous current distribution?
In the application scenario of a back-to-back converter with multi-bus capacitors in parallel, the capacitor parallel affects the instantaneous current distribution of the switch in the laminated busbar so it is necessary to analyze the instantaneous current distribution of the multi-capacitor parallel busbar theoretically.
How is AC current distributed on a bus bar?
The AC current on the bus bar circulates between five DC-link capacitors and three IGBT modules, as a result, the experimental verification for AC current distribution can be implemented by examining the currents in each DC-link capacitors. The current in one of the capacitors is shown in Fig. 17a, while a zoomed in view is shown in Fig. 17b.
