Alkali Concentration Mechanism on Cathode Terminal End in Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor

Accelerated Ageing of Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor

Electrolytic capacitors are extensively used in filtering and power decoupling in power electronic converters. Low cost and high energy density of these capacitors make them popular. However, these capacitors degrade with age due to heating and evaporation of electrolyte. This process may take about 2 to 7 years depending on the application, ambient conditions and capacitor construction. This p...

Online Failure Prediction of the Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor

The aim of this research is to present a simple online condition monitoring system to predict failure of the aluminum electrolytic capacitors used in the output LC filter of the switched mode DC–DC buck converters. Equivalent Series Resistance (ESR) is the best indicator of the failure of the aluminium electrolytic capacitors. The main idea of the proposed method is to monitor the ESR value and...

Fault Prognostic Based on Ar-lssvr for Electrolytic Capacitor

Original scientific paper This paper puts forward a method of fault prognostic based on Autoregressive Support Vector Regression Method (AR-LSSVR) for electrolytic capacitor. Because the electrolytic capacitor is low in cost and large in volume, it is widely used in power electronic circuits. Firstly it introduces the basic model and the fault prognostic algorithm of the AR, LSSVM and AR-LSSVR....
