Abstract |
Power electronic devices are important in almost all industrial sectors. Power converters are used forelectric drive systems in the production of an automation industry, in the automotive industry, aspower supplies in telecommunications or for power conversion in power supply systems. For testingsuch electronic equipment, hardware-in-the-loop simulation is almost a standard method today,especially in the automotive industry, which always requires a real-time simulation of the plant. Fortesting the electronic control units of power electronics, real-time capable models of power electroniccircuits need to be developed, accordingly. In the previously published contribution differentmodeling methods were described and an algorithm was developed, which can be used to simulatepower electronic circuits in real-time. Based on this algorithm and the automated generation of suchmodels, further improvements for reducing the memory usage, increasing the degree ofparallelization and improving accuracy are described in this paper. However, the presented approachesand modifications as well as the studies on correction methods for switching events and thepreprocessing can be applied to other algorithms. |
