Abstract
An electrified vehicle capacitor assembly including a film capacitor assembly and a support structure is provided. The film capacitor assembly may include a stack of alternating electrodes and film layers. The electrodes may be offset from one another to alternatively contact opposing terminals. The support structure may include coolant channels and may be arranged to orient the film capacitor assembly adjacent an inverter assembly and such that each is in conductive thermal communication with at least one of the coolant channels. The film capacitor assembly further includes a stack of alternating metal foils and film layers disposed between a pair of contact layers, a pair of terminals, and a first thermal plate. Each of the pair of terminals is disposed on an outer side of one of each of the pair of contact layers.
