Data used for reliability analysis of half-bridge MMCs

The dataset includes the parameters of converters and results obtained by the proposed method shown in Paper "Reliability Analysis of MMCs (modular multlevel converter) Considering Sub-module Designs with Individual or Series Operated IGBTs".Data shown in the file ”Basic parameter.xlsx” are the parameters of converters. And the study was based on those parameters.Data shown in the file ”Results_Case A.xlsx” are the results of case A-"Reliability comparison of MMCs", including the converter parameters in sheet 1, failure rate of MMCs in sheet 2, expected voltage capability of an arm and the corresponding standard deviation in sheet 3.Data shown in the file ”Results_Case B.xlsx” are the results of case B-"Influence of IGBT module's failure rate", including the converter parameters in sheet 1, failure rate of MMCs in sheet 2, expected voltage capability of an arm and the corresponding standard deviation in sheet 3.Data shown in the file ”Results_Case C.xlsx” are the results of case C-"Design comparison of MMCs", including the converter parameters in sheet 1, failure rate of MMCs in sheet 2, expected voltage capability of an arm and the corresponding standard deviation in sheet 3.Results based upon these data are published at http://dx.doi.org/10.1109/TPWRD.2016.2572061
