Heat Sinks for E-Mobility
Our ceramic heat sinks for various thermal management tasks in E-Mobility have many things in common: Their high thermal conductivity while at the same time providing electrical isolation allows them to effectively and reliably control the heat development in small spaces when exposed to high electric loads. The sink’s design and cooling performance are determined by the operation site and the required specifications.
Whatever cooling performance and sink design is required for E-Mobility? As your partner, we create individual cooling solutions taking into account technical and economic aspects.
Cooperation for Optimal Cooling Performance
CeramTec and the Fraunhofer Institute for Integrated Systems and Device Technology (IISB) in Erlangen are working together to develop innovative cooling solutions for power electronics for a drive inverter. This joint project focuses on thermal management using ceramic coolers with applied metallisation. This makes it possible to apply semiconductor chips directly to the ceramic cooler (chip-on-heatsink).
The collaboration focuses on the development of a module design that uses ceramic coolers to efficiently dissipate heat from the SiC chips, makes the best possible use of the chip area and keeps the size of the cooler as small as possible. In this way, high electrical power, which generates a lot of heat, can be reliably dissipated in a small space and the sizes of power modules can be miniaturised. In the measurements carried out by IISB, it was possible to halve the thermal resistance compared to state-of-the-art modules.
