Power supply device and power supply system
This power supply device ( 100 ) is provided with a power supply unit ( 10 ), a temperature sensor ( 28 ) for measuring the internal temperature of the power supply unit ( 10 ), a calculation circuit ( 22 ) for predicting an end-point temperature from the internal temperature of the power supply unit ( 10 ) measured by the temperature sensor ( 28 ) and the slope of the internal temperature rise and estimating a surrounding temperature on the basis of the end-point temperature and the load status of the power supply unit ( 10 ); and a display circuit ( 23 ) for displaying the surrounding temperature estimated by the calculation circuit ( 22 ).
1. A power supply device comprising:
a power supply unit;
a measurement unit which measures an internal temperature of the power supply unit;
a calculation unit which predicts an end-point temperature from the internal temperature of the power supply unit measured by the measurement unit and a slope of an internal temperature rise and estimates a surrounding temperature of the power supply unit based on the predicted end-point temperature and a load status of the power supply unit; and
an output unit which outputs the estimated surrounding temperature.
2. The power supply device according to claim 1 , further comprising a storage unit which stores a correspondence table which records a correspondence among a surrounding temperature, the internal temperature, and the load status,
wherein the calculation unit estimates the surrounding temperature based on the predicted end-point temperature and the load status from the correspondence table stored in the storage unit.
3. The power supply device according to claim 1 , wherein the measurement unit measures a value of a temperature sensor as the internal temperature, and the temperature sensor detects a temperature of a component constituting the power supply unit.
4. The power supply device according to claim 1 , wherein the power supply device generates an alarm when the slope of the internal temperature rise exceeds a predetermined value.
5. A power supply system comprising:
the power supply device according to claim 1 ; and
a calculation processing device which obtains an operating state of the power supply device corresponding to the estimated surrounding temperature estimated by the power supply device,
wherein the calculation processing device compares the obtained operating state of the power supply device with a predetermined usage condition for displaying the obtained operating state on a display unit.
6. The power supply system according to claim 5 , wherein the calculation processing device also displays a time-series change in the obtained operating state of the power supply device on the display unit.
