Abstract
A power electronics system has a switching device and a liquid cooling device. A switching device has a plate element, and power semiconductor devices are arranged on conductor tracks and connected by means of a connecting device, wherein the liquid cooling device has a first partial body having an inlet volume region and an outlet volume region and a second partial body. A cooling volume region is formed between the two partial bodies, wherein heat transfer bodies protrude into the cooling volume region from the second partial body. The second partial body is arranged in a recess of the first partial body and the two partial bodies are connected to each other and have a common plane surface which forms a first main surface.
Claims14
A power electronics system, having a switching device and a liquid cooling device, wherein:
- the switching device, further comprises:
- a plate element on the side of which, facing away from the liquid cooling device, a plurality of power semiconductor devices are arranged on electrically insulated conductor tracks and are connected in a circuit-compatible manner by means of a connecting device;
- and
- the liquid cooling device, further comprises:
- a first partial body having an inlet volume region and an outlet volume region and a second partial body, wherein a cooling volume region is formed between the two partial bodies, wherein a plurality of heat transfer bodies protrudes into the cooling volume region from the second partial body;
- the second partial body is arranged in a recess of the first partial body and the two partial bodies are connected to each other in a materially-bonded and fluid pressure-tight manner and have a common planar first surface that forms a first main surface;
- the liquid cooling device is designed and provided such that a coolant liquid flows through the liquid cooling device from the inlet volume region via the cooling volume region to the outlet volume region;
- and
- wherein the plate element of the switching device is arranged in a force-fitting manner on the common planar first surface.
