电力电子在发电、配电、用电中逐步占据重要地位。由于超过70%的电力通过电力电子处理，最近的研究努力提高电力电子系统的可靠性，以满足各种应用中对成本、安全性和可用性的更严格的限制。本文对电力电子可靠性的主要方面进行了综述，并对这一多学科研究方向的未来趋势进行了展望。首先介绍了可靠性研究中正在进行的范式转变。然后，分别从关键电力电子元件的失效物理分析、可靠性过程和稳健性验证的最新设计、提高运行可靠性的智能控制和状态监测三个方面对电力电子可靠性进行了讨论。最后讨论了未来实现更可靠的电力电子系统所面临的挑战和机遇。
Power electronics has progressively gained an important status in power generation, distribution, and consumption. With more than 70% of electricity processed through power electronics, recent research endeavors to improve the reliability of power electronic systems to comply with more stringent constraints on cost, safety, and availability in various applications. This paper serves to give an overview of the major aspects of reliability in power electronics and to address the future trends in this multidisciplinary research direction. The ongoing paradigm shift in reliability research is presented first. Then, the three major aspects of power electronics reliability are discussed, respectively, which cover physics-of-failure analysis of critical power electronic components, state-of-the-art design for reliability process and robustness validation, and intelligent control and condition monitoring to achieve improved reliability under operation. Finally, the challenges and opportunities for achieving more reliable power electronic systems in the future are discussed.
