Xi 'an Institute of Power Electronics Technology is a centralized technical research institution in the field of power electronics in China. It is the seat of the national institutes, associations, important national core periodicals, the international IEC T42 committee and the national technical committee for standardization of power electronics, and is the affiliated unit of the National Power Electronic Product Quality Supervision and Inspection Center.
It is the only professional research institute engaged in the research of power semiconductor device technology and converter technology in China. Since its establishment more than 40 years ago, it has laid a technical foundation for the research of power semiconductor devices and their application technologies in China and made certain contributions. The technical foundation and development of seven domestic rectifiers are closely related to this research institute.
At present, the main business of the research institute is: design, development, production and service of power semiconductor discrete devices, power electronic converters and test technologies and equipment for power semiconductor devices of 5000A/8500V and below.
Therefore, the research on ultra-high power electronic devices, new power electronic device technology and power electronic converter application technology is the core of future development. Through the technical cooperation and exchange with well-known enterprises at home and abroad, and through the combination with Industry-University-Research of a university, we will realize our innovative goal and develop the Institute into a research and development and industrial base of power semiconductor devices in China.
Xi 'an Institute of Power Electronics Technology has more than 500 employees, among whom senior and intermediate technicians account for more than 60% of the total number.
The National Power Electronics Engineering Research Center, the National Power Electronics Product Quality Supervision and Inspection Center, the Power Electronics Professional Association of China Electrical Appliance Industry Association, the Power Electronics Society of China Institute of Electrician, and the National Power Electronics Standardization Technical Committee are all located in our institute. The research institute consists of five research laboratories, 1 technology development department and five joint ventures and joint-stock companies, including Epark, Yili, Xipu, Tian Kai and Saijing. Over the past 40 years, the Institute has achieved more than 365,438+00 scientific research achievements.
In China's power electronics industry, Xidian Institute of Technology has gathered the best domestic scientific and technological talents in power electronic device technology and application technology, with strong technical strength and sophisticated technology and equipment. It is mainly engaged in the research and development and production of high-power power semiconductor devices, various new power electronic devices, various power electronic application devices, testing technology and equipment, reliability technology and cooling technology, and has become a famous research and development center, national engineering research center, national power electronic product quality supervision and inspection center and standard information in China.
At the beginning of this century, ABB Semiconductor Company and Siemens Company successively introduced the production technology of high-power electronically controlled and optically controlled thyristors for UHVDC transmission, and realized localization. They matched high-power and high-voltage thyristors for DC transmission converters in Three Gorges-Changzhou, Three Gorges-Guangdong and Qiandong-Guangdong, and became the production bases of core components of converter valves in China power transmission and transformation projects. In recent years, Xidian Institute has undertaken a number of key scientific research projects such as National Development and Reform Commission, Ministry of Science and Technology, and General Assembly Department, all of which are high-input and high-output research topics urgently needed by the power electronics industry, and the market application prospect is quite broad. Such as: EHV DC power transmission and transformation project, motor control and speed regulation system of urban rail transit vehicles, high-voltage synchronous motor start-up, AC high-voltage motor frequency conversion speed regulation, electrified railway high-speed switch, frequent switch in steel mills and rolling mills, electrochemical rectifier power supply, etc.
The products have won the titles of national key new products and national torch plan for many times, and won various awards at all levels: China Machinery Industry Science and Technology Progress Award, China Electrician New Product Award, Shaanxi Science and Technology Award, etc. , has made a certain contribution to the technical progress and development of power electronics industry.
