Abstract
An integrated capacitor and power module include a power module, an intermediate cold plate, and a capacitor module. The intermediate cold plate has a first side attached to the power module and a second side opposite the first side. The capacitor module is attached to a second side of the intermediate cold plate. The capacitor module includes a plurality of metalized film capacitor cells supported by a metal plate and a base cold plate with a layer of thermal interface material between the metal plate and the base cold plate. A fluid circulation system is operatively connected to the intermediate cold plate to circulate a fluid through the cold plate. The capacitor module includes a housing, a plurality of capacitor cells and first and second busbars. Alternating cell arrays have a P-end and an N-end that are inverted relative to each other.
