摘要： A power electronic converter supplies DC output power to an output bus for supplying a load, such as a battery. The power electronic converter includes a DC link capacitor configured to provide a DC link voltage with a ripple of 80 V peak-to-peak. The power electronic converter also includes a DC/DC stage having a DC/AC converter that includes one or more switches to selectively conduct current from the DC link bus to supply an AC power to a transformer. The switches of the DC/AC converter are mounted to an insulated metal substrate that is in thermal contact with a transformer housing for dissipating heat therefrom. A controller controls one or more switches of the DC/AC converter and varies a switching frequency responsive to the ripple of the DC link voltage.

摘要： A coldplate for removing heat from one or more heat sources, such as power electronics devices, includes a baseplate including a first surface in thermally-conductive communication with the heat sources. The baseplate includes a second surface opposite the first surface to transfer heat into a cooling fluid in contact therewith. The second surface includes a peripheral flange surrounding a central region having a plurality of parallel ribs, which increase the surface area to improve heat transfer from the baseplate and into the fluid. A housing abuts the peripheral flange of the baseplate to define a cooling passage for circulation of the cooling fluid. A jet-array plate subdivides the cooling passage into a supply header and a main channel and defines a plurality of orifices to convey the fluid into the main channel and to direct the fluid toward predetermined zones on the baseplate.

摘要： An LLC power converter comprises a switching stage and a resonant tank, the switching stage configured to switch an input power at a switching frequency to apply a switched power to the resonant tank, and the resonant tank includes a resonant inductor, a resonant capacitor, and a parallel inductance. A transformer has a primary winding connected to the resonant tank and a secondary winding. A synchronous rectifier (SR) switch is configured to selectively switch current from the secondary winding to supply a rectified current to a load. An RC filter includes a filter capacitor and a filter resistor connected across the SR switch, with the filter capacitor defining a filter capacitor voltage thereacross. A rectifier driver is configured to drive the SR switch to a conductive state in response to the filter capacitor voltage being less than a threshold value.

摘要： A cooling jacket for an electric motor comprises a fluid passage disposed adjacent to a stator and configured to convey a cooling fluid. The cooling jacket includes a flow mixing enhancer within the fluid passage adjacent an axial end of the stator. The flow mixing enhancer includes baffles, a porous fibrous structure, and/or an open-cell foam to provide greater thermal conductance at a region adjacent to the axial ends than it provides to a central region therebetween. A flow bridge directs the cooling fluid through circumferential flow paths adjacent to both of the axial ends before the cooling fluid is circulated in a central flow path around the central region of the stator. One or more nozzles direct a jet of cooling fluid upon the stator end winding, a rotor end winding, and/or printed circuit board. A ring-shaped coolant header may supply the cooling fluid to the nozzles.

摘要： Permanent magnet (PM) flux strength in a permanent magnet synchronous machine (PMSM) can be affected by operating conditions including thermal, mechanical, environmental and electrical stresses. Reduced flux strength, also called demagnetization, can lead to the degradation of the efficiency, performance and reliability of the machine and the drive system. A reliable PM strength, PM flux linkage, PM SOH, PM demagnetization detection method using the same inverter (i.e. motor drive) used to operate the PMSM is provided. The method comprises applying phase voltages to each of a plurality of motor leads of the PMSM with the PMSM at a stand-still condition; measuring current in each of the plurality of motor leads of the PMSM while applying the phase voltages thereto; and determining at least one of flux linkage, PM strength, PM SoH, or PM demagnetization based on a value of the current in at least one of the motor leads.

摘要： A battery charger for an electric vehicle supplies DC output power to an output bus for supplying power to a battery. The battery charger includes an AC/DC converter using switches to convert AC power from an AC source to a DC link voltage upon a DC link bus. A DC link capacitor allows a ripple in the DC link voltage that is greater than in conventional charger designs. A DC/DC stage includes a DC/AC converter including one or more switches to selectively conduct current from the DC link bus to supply an AC power to a transformer. The switches of the DC/AC converter are mounted to an insulated metal substrate that is in thermal contact with a transformer housing for dissipating heat therefrom. A controller controls one or more switches of the DC/AC converter and varies a switching frequency responsive to the ripple of the DC link voltage.

摘要： An electric machine includes a stator, a rotor configured to rotate about an axis, and a housing surrounding the rotor and the stator. The housing includes an end cap at an axial end of the electric machine. The housing encloses an end space between the rotor and the end cap. The electric machine also includes a nozzle disposed within the end space and configured to discharge a cooling fluid into the end space in a direction tangential to the rotation of the rotor. The cooling fluid may include liquid, such as oil. The electric machine may be an induction machine or a synchronous machine. The nozzle may include an inlet tube that extends through the end cap. The electric machine may include two end spaces on opposite ends of the rotor, with one or more nozzles located in each of the two end spaces.
