Therefore, the major factors affecting the lifetime of electrolytic capacitors in the power applications will be the operating temperature, the ripple current and the operating voltage. Other factors have minor affect to the lifetime and can be ignored in the calculation. 1. Influence of temperature on the lifetime model
Influence of ripple current on the lifetime model The ripple current causes power dissipation and heating. The capacitor produces more internal heat when a ripple current flows through it. The temperature rise due to this heat may significantly shorten the lifetime of the capacitor.
There is a novel method to actively compensate for the reactive current caused by the EMI capacitor. Moreover, the PFC current-loop reference is reshaped at the AC zero-crossing to accommodate for the fact that any reverse current will be blocked by the diode bridge. Both PF and THD are improved as a result. Figure 3.
In this paper, a new method of dead time calculation is proposed that can reduce computation time and improve the efficiency of the system. However, when analyzing the influence of the driver circuit on the dead time, the driver circuit is not modeled precisely, but the method of adding margin is adopted.
Thus, an operating voltage lower than the rated can extend the lifetime of capacitors. In practice, operating voltages are higher than the half of the rated voltage and therefore only they are covered by the proposed lifetime estimation model.
A total of 47 capacitors under test are used for this accelerated aging study. Measurements using an impedancemeter are done periodically during the accelerated aging test to characterize the frequency response of the capacitor’s impedance.
