  • Thermoelectric solid-state cooling for example, Peltier effect-based techniques can be used for heat management of the motor controller system of the electric vehicle. These techniques can be used to achieve localized cooling zones which can be targeted according to the geometry and heat distribution on the motor controller system’s processing chip and supporting capacitors. Further, the size of Peltier module is compact (e.g. 40 millimeters (mm) x 40 mm x 4 mm), which is favorable to be used at a specific location of a heat spot. Furthermore, the heat transfer curve is characteristic to mandatory specifications (e.g. “TEC1 12715” specifications) and can produce a temperature difference of 65 °C for a power input of 255 Watts, thereby making these techniques favorable for implementation in electric vehicles. Furthermore, these solid-state cooling techniques are stationary, i.e. require minimal number of components and moving parts, and therefore, provide for a greater life span of the apparatus, easy serviceability and repairability.
  • the optimal motor controller system’s temperature should be 35°C to 65°C, depending upon the environmental factors such as ambient temperature, climate and altitude. It may be noted that the basis of conduction heat transfer is dependent on the coefficient of thermal conductivity k (which is the characteristic property of the material). A relation between temperature range which is required dT, and the thickness of the material dx, through which the heat flux Q travels is given by Fourier’s Law, and is as mentioned below:

  • the second layer 114 of the thermal compound may be applied on the hot side 102h of the one or more Peltier modules 102.
  • the thermal compound may include micronized silver particles suspended in a ceramic-based compound.
  • the heat sink 104 having the heat absorbing side 104a and the heat dissipating side 104d may be conductively coupled to the one or more Peltier modules 102, through the second layer 114 of the thermal compound.
  • the hot side 102h of each of the one or more Peltier modules 102 may be conductively coupled to the heat absorbing side 104a of the heat sink 104 via the second layer 114 of the thermal compound.
  • the convection unit 106 may be positioned in proximity to the heat dissipating side 104d of the heat sink 104.
  • the convection unit 106 may be configured to fan air at the heat dissipating side 104d.
  • a heat management system for managing heat generated at the motor controller system of an electrical vehicle uses “TEC1 12715” Peltier modules to cool the motor controller system via conduction.
  • the heat management system employs a heat sink with tapered fins for effectively cooling the hot side of the Peltier modules.
  • An intra layer heat transfer function governs the quantity and position of the modules for localized cooling.
  • the above heat management system provides for a simple design with maximum nonmoving parts to reduce the complexity. Further, the heat management system provides for a higher life of the attached utility in comparison to the conventional cooling systems.
  • the heat management system is capable of achieving optimum working temperature of the motor controller system in scenarios when approximately 300 Amperes of direct current (DC) current and 350 Amperes of alternating current (AC) current are being regulated.
  • the heat management system provides channels the heat being generated to the heat sink for smooth functioning of the motor system controller with the help of thermoelectric solid state cooling module i.e. Peltier modules. Due to lesser number of moving part employed by this solid state cooling module, the heat management system is more reliable and with greater life expectancy (as compared to systems with compressors and condensers). Further, the heat management system is quiet (low noise) and versatile and is appropriate for any automobile. It is possible to achieve desired temperature differences with less complications.

Abstract

Un système de gestion thermique (100) pour un système de dispositif de commande de moteur (108) d'un véhicule électrique est divulgué, qui comprend un ou plusieurs modules Peltier (102), comprenant chacun un côté chaud (102h) et un côté froid (102c). Une plaque thermoconductrice (110), présentant une première surface (110A) et une seconde surface (110B) est couplée de manière conductrice au système de dispositif de commande de moteur (108) par l'intermédiaire de la première surface (110A) et au ou aux modules Peltier (102) par l'intermédiaire de la seconde surface (110B). Un dissipateur thermique (104) présente un côté d'absorption thermique (104a) et un côté de dissipation thermique (104d), le côté chaud (102h) de chacun du ou des modules Peltier (102) étant couplé de manière conductrice au côté d'absorption thermique (104a). Une unité de convection (106) est positionnée à proximité du côté de dissipation thermique (104d) et est conçue pour souffler de l'air au niveau du côté de dissipation thermique (104d).
