An air-cooled heat sink design for IGBT modules based on heat pipe technology
In order to solve the heat dissipation problem of a three-level IGBT module of urban rail,a composite substrate/corrugated fin heat sink was proposed.Tlie thermal performance of the radiator was analyzed by numerical simulation and verified by experiments.The results show that the thermal resistance of the composite substrate/corrugated fin heat sink is reduced by an average of 24.8%compared with the conventional substrate heat sink.Additionally,by embedding the curved heat pipe into the substrate,the non-uniformity of temperature is significantly reduced by about 86.2%.In conclusion,the composite substrate/corrugated fin heat sink can meet the requirements of 450 W modules in regards to heat dissipation,and the temperature non-u-niformity meets the requirements of the design within 2 K.
