Abstract: Heat dissipation system, a power converter using such a heat dissipation system, and an associated method of thermal management of the power converter are disclosed. The heat dissipation system includes a condenser, a first cooling loop, and a second cooling loop. The first cooling loop is coupled to the condenser and includes a first two-phase heat transfer device. The second cooling loop is coupled to the condenser and includes a second two-phase heat transfer device. The condenser is disposed above the first and second two-phase heat transfer devices.

Abstract: The present disclosure pertains to electric machines such as electric propulsion systems for aircraft that integrated cooling systems, and methods of cooling such an electric machine. Exemplary electric machines include an electric motor that has a stator, a rotor, and a drive shaft operably coupled to the rotor. Exemplary electric machines further include a motor cooling conduit that defines a pathway for conveying a cooling fluid through or around at least a portion of the electric motor, a casing assembly that circumferentially surrounds at least a portion of the electric motor, a casing assembly conduit integrally formed within at least a portion of the casing assembly which defines a pathway for conveying the cooling fluid through the at least a portion of the casing assembly, and a pump or compressor operably coupled to the drive shaft and configured to circulate the cooling fluid through the motor cooling conduit and the casing assembly conduit.

Abstract: An electrical system for use in powering an electrical device includes a housing, a plurality of electrical components positioned within the housing, and a cooling system coupled in flow communication with the plurality of electrical components. The cooling system includes a sorption chiller positioned proximate the housing and is configured to utilize waste heat from the plurality of electrical components to condition air within the housing such that an internal temperature of the housing is less than an ambient temperature external to the housing.
