Abstract
A power electronics assembly includes one or more power electronics devices, and a heat exchanger to which the one or more power electronics devices are mounted. The heat exchanger includes an inlet manifold and an outlet manifold, and one or more fluid pathways extending connecting the inlet manifold and the outlet manifold, the heat exchanger configured to transfer thermal energy from the one or more power electronics devices into a flow of fluid passing through the one or more fluid pathways. Thee one or more fluid pathways include one or more internal enhancements and channel configurations to enhance thermal energy transfer by promoting boiling of the flow of fluid and to reduce the pressure drop in the pathways under a two-phase flow condition. The flow of fluid is a flow of liquid refrigerant diverted from a condenser of a heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system.
