Predicting the impact of automotive power electronics topology on e-powertrain performance - ERP Spain.com - España y América Latina

 

Power electronics modules for vehicle propulsion play an important role in the success of automotive electrification. OEMs are looking for new technologies and innovations to get the optimal power conversion efficiency set by the performance requirements. Decisions need to integrate the variety of circuit topologies and semiconductor technologies (SiC MOSFET, Si IBGTs, etc.) to provide the appropriate voltage levels, as well as the appropriate thermal management system (might it be cold plate, double-side or liquid pin cooling). The combination of those elements will impact the vehicle’s performance during integration with regards to reliability, energy consumption, power and thermal safety. Hence, it is critical to explore the design space early in the development cycle and avoid later performance failure.

 

This webinar will introduce how a continuous digital thread will enable you to explore design possibilities, assess performance levels from component choices to integration, and make the right decisions weighting performances, energy consumption and thermal safety.
