Efficient power conversion is a cornerstone of electric vehicle technology. The transformer, a vital component of the DC-DC converter,
plays a key role in ensuring energy is delivered reliably and efficiently. With limited space in electric vehicles, optimizing the design of power components becomes essential.
Our work focuses on developing advanced thermal designs that reduce the system's volume while enhancing thermal performance.
This ensures not only compactness but also reliability and safety under demanding operating conditions.
Power semiconductors and Intelligence Power Modules (IPMs) are integral components in power conversion systems (PCS),
responsible for regulating electrical signals to control current flow. However, high operating temperatures can degrade their performance due to increased conduction losses,
making efficient thermal management crucial. Our research focuses on the thermal design of advanced power semiconductors, ensuring optimal performance,
reliability, and durability in high-demand environments.
