[Seminar] Innovations in Thermal Design for Power Electronics
19/02/2025
Modern power electronics face constant pressure for higher power density and efficiency, requiring innovative approaches to thermal management. The development of new materials, such as wide-bandgap semiconductors (e.g., SiC and GaN), and the growing complexity of cooling applications like electric vehicles and renewable energy systems present both challenges and opportunities. Properly optimized design is key to enhancing reliability and extending the lifespan of power modules.
