    摘要: The present invention relates to a heat-sink base provided with heat-sink fin portions, it manufacturing method and a motor provided with the heat-sink base. The base is produced by pouring cast metal into a mold cavity to replace a pattern having a predetermined sublimation temperature. The base includes a preformed heat-sink member comprising a plurality of heat-sink fin portions and at least one anchor portion embedded at least partially in the pattern, and a base body comprising an enclosed base portion and a holder portion for receiving and holding the at least one anchor portion. By virtue of the invented method, the heat-sink member having an extremely thin thickness can be mounted on the base body and the overall surface area of the heat-sink base is increased considerably.

    摘要: A multi-mode vehicle thermal management system is provided that optimizes drive train operating efficiency by thermally de-coupling the drive train thermal control loop from other vehicle thermal control loops during initial vehicle start-up when drive train coolant/lubricant is cold, thus taking into account the temperature dependence of the coolant/lubricant characteristics (e.g., viscosity and density) and the effects of these characteristics on viscous drag and bearing/seal preload force.
