Most of the approaches in the literature deal with PWM switching technique. In this paper presents a feasible loss model to estimate IGBT losses in a switching operation. The loss model is coupled to RC (Foster) Network using the Thermal Impedance. This paper investigates the power losses in IGBT's and associated Diodes as a function of the circuit and the temperature variation during operation. A full presentation of the electro-thermal model has been developed and simulatedenInverterIGBTThermal AnalysisCalculation of IGBT power losses and junction temperature in inverter driveArticle
