A closed-loop cooling system is internal to the enclosure of an induction drive system. Two inverter modules of the induction drive system each includes three insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) modules for producing an AC output from a DC source, the AC output received by an induction coil for heating a metal.

High power switching devices for inductive heating applications

A power inverter comprises a plurality of high power switching modules that form an alternating current (AC) output; a plurality of terminals in communication with the high power switching modules for outputting the AC output; a capacitor bank that provides a conditioned voltage to the high power switching modules for producing the AC output in response to receiving and storing electrical energy related to a direct current (DC) supply; and a case positioned over the high power switching modules. The capacitor bank is mounted to the case, and the capacitor bank is positioned over the high power switching modules so that the high power switching terminals are proximal the capacitor bank for reducing inductance. A gate driver module at a top region of the high power switching modules includes a plurality of planar transformers for reducing a distance between the capacitor bank and the gate driver.

Power converter

An annular stator assembly includes a plurality of stator segments. Each stator segment includes a plurality of laminates having magnetic permeable properties; a plurality of thermally conductive laminates positioned between the permeable laminates; and a cooling pipe extending through the laminates for transferring heat from the laminates to coolant flowing through the cooling pipe. The stator segments are constructed independently. Coils are wound on each segment. The stator segments with the wound coils are subsequently arranged to form the annular stator assembly.

Device and method for cooling electric device having modular stators

Provided are a power management system and method. At least one frame module includes at least one bay and a plurality of first connectors at a rear portion of the at least one bay and at least one power conversion unit positioned in the at least one bay. The at least one power conversion unit includes a plurality of second connectors. Each second connector is removably coupled to a first connector of the plurality of first connectors. The first and second connectors include a combination of high power, cooling, and control connectors.
