A heat pipe cooled capacitor includes a capacitor body having opposing first and second ends and an opening defined between the opposing ends. A first heat pipe is thermally and electrically connected to the first end of the capacitor body. A second heat pipe is positioned at least partially through the opening of the capacitor body. The second heat pipe is thermally connected to the second end of the capacitor body, and electrically isolated from the first heat pipe.

Thermal control for capacitor

A capacitor having a large current carrying capacity includes a hollow core formed by a non-conducting tubular section, and a capacitor winding wrapped around the tubular section. A sensor is disposed within the hollow core. The sensor is configured to sense a predetermined temperature level within the hollow core and provide an alert external to the capacitor winding.
