Systems and methods for thermal management in inductors
A thermal management includes an inductor, a housing in thermal communication with the inductor, the housing defining a wall, and a conductor. The conductor has a greater heat transfer rate than the wall and is positioned within a groove and/or an aperture formed in the wall. The conductor is configured to transfer heat through the wall more efficiently than if the conductor were not present. A method of manufacturing a thermal management system includes forming a housing by additive manufacturing. The housing defines a wall having at least one of a groove and an aperture defined therein. The method includes positioning a conductor in at least one of the groove and the aperture. The conductor has a greater heat transfer rate than the wall. The method includes positioning an inductor into thermal communication with the housing.
INDUCTOR COMPONENT
An inductor component includes an element body; and a coil in the element body. The element body includes a metal magnetic powder-containing resin having a resin and metal magnetic powder in the resin. The element body has a rectangular parallelepiped shape having first and second principal surfaces facing each other, and first, second, third and fourth side surfaces connected to the first and second principal surfaces. Each of the first and second principal surfaces has an area larger than an area of each of the first to fourth side surfaces. Each of the first side surface and the first principal surface has one or more recesses, and a deepest recess among the one or more recesses on the first side surface has a maximum depth that is larger than a maximum depth of a deepest recess among the one or more recesses on the first principal surface.
PARALLEL TRANSFORMER TEMPERATURE MEASUREMENT AND FAULT DETECTION SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DDC ENCLOSURES
A system, for measurement of temperatures and detection of faults of parallel transformers in a DDC enclosure, that includes a first transformer and a second transformer arranged in a parallel configuration that deliver power to components of a building management system (BMS). The system also includes a direct digital control (DDC) circuit that controls power delivered through the first and the second transformers to the components of the building management system (BMS). The system further includes a first temperature sensor, operationally connected to the DDC circuit, which measures the temperature of the first transformer. Furthermore, the system includes a second temperature sensor, operationally connected to the DDC circuit, which measures the temperature of the second transformer. The DDC circuit determines a difference between the first temperature and the second temperature to predict a fault in the first transformer or the second transformer.
Reactor
