A method for estimating the junction temperature on-line on an insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) power module, including the following steps. Estimate the junction temperature by the temperature sensitive electrical parameter method, set the space thermal model of the extended state, and apply the Kalman filter to the junction temperature estimation. The temperature sensitive electrical parameter method estimates the junction temperature of the IGBT power module in real time, selects the IGBT conduction voltage drop V.sub.CE(ON) as the temperature sensitive electrical parameter, and provides a V.sub.CE(ON) on-line measuring circuit. The power loss of the diode and IGBT and the estimated value of junction temperature obtained by the temperature sensitive electrical parameter method are taken as the input of the Kalman filter, and measurement noise and process noise are considered to obtain an optimal estimated value of junction temperature.

The disclosure is directed to techniques for a thermostat to determine the air temperature of a room based on measurements of temperatures sensors located inside a housing of the thermostat. Because the thermostat for an evaporative cooler operates at line voltage and controls current flowing to the evaporative cooler, the magnitude of current flowing through the thermostat may vary from nearly zero, when the thermostat is in the powered-off state, to a current on the order of several amps. The variation in current causes a variation in temperature inside the housing of the thermostat. The techniques of this disclosure compensate for changes the internal housing temperature caused by changes in operating mode. The compensation allows the temperature sensors inside the thermostat housing to determine the air temperature of the room in which the thermostat is located, without regard for the operating mode of the evaporative cooler system.
