Thermal Management of On-board Chargers in E-Vehicles
Electric vehicles are poised for a rapid growth phase with the combined effect of longer range, lower battery cost and faster charging rate. In particular, sales of plug-in electric vehicles (PEV) have tripled since 2013 and continue to grow at over 40% a year. It is expected that at these growth rates, 8 out of 10 new cars sold globally in 2030 will be a PEV. In some countries … [Read more...]
Advanced Cooling for Power Electronics
Power electronics devices such as MOSFETs, GTOs, IGBTs, IGCTs etc. are now widely used to efficiently deliver electrical power in home electronics, industrial drives, telecommunication, transport, electric grid and numerous other applications. This paper discusses cooling technologies that have evolved in step to remove increasing levels of heat dissipation and manage junction … [Read more...]
