“…The results of the investigation performed in Ref. [30] have revealed that the capacitor voltage change rate increased from 4% to 34% within 1 min when the temperature increased from 5 • C to 65 • C under 445 V/µm. Herein, the DCLC voltage change rate rose from 5.63% to 21.31% as the temperature increased from 20 • C to 70 • C under 482.76 V/µm.…”

Insulation resistance is a vital factor in dry DC link capacitors (DCLCs), and crucially influences their voltage equalization and energy storage performance. However, at present, there is a lack of experimental observation on the insulation resistance characteristics of DCLCs in the presence of high temperatures and operating voltages. In the present study, the insulation resistance and conductivity of DCLCs are methodically analyzed. For this purpose, the corresponding test platform is appropriately fabricated, the insulation resistance measurement experiments are performed at various temperatures and operating voltages, and the factors affecting the insulation resistance and conductivity of the DCLC are carefully examined. The results reveal that the insulation resistance of the DCLC reduces exponentially with the growth in voltage and operating temperature. When the operating voltage becomes greater than 4480 V or the operating temperature reaches higher than 70 °C, the decline in insulation resistance slows down. The conductivity of metalized polypropylene film in the DCLC increases exponentially with increasing voltage and temperature. By increasing the operating voltage from 1960 V to 5600 V and the temperature from 20 °C to 90 °C, the DCLC’s insulation resistance exhibits a descending trend from 891.30 MΩ to 2.14 MΩ, while its conductivity grows from 3.49 × 10−16 S/m to 1.47 × 10−13 S/m. The results reveal that the key factors affecting the insulation resistance of the DCLC are the polypropylene film and the metal evaporated from the metal layer. This research is anticipated to provide a valuable reference for the further development of science and technology pertinent to the insulation resistance of DCLCs.
