In this\ud
study, the converter-structure based power loss and thermal\ud
models are developed for the medium voltage full-scale 3LANPC-\ud
VSC and 3L-HB-VSC utilizing press-pack IGBT-diode\ud
pairs and interfacing a 6MW wind turbine to a medium voltage\ud
grid. The switching power loss models are built using the\ud
experimentally obtained switching power loss data from a fullscale\ud
3L-ANPC-VSC leg. The static thermal models are\ud
developed considering the double-sided cooling of the switches\ud
by the cooling plates. For the experimental model verifications, a\ud
test setup with a single-phase full-scale 3L-ANPC-VSC is introduced.Peer ReviewedPostprint (published version
