Abstract
A liquid-cooled high-load resistor includes an element carrier having an inlet and an outlet, a break-through and a first and second electrical terminal connection, and one resistor element, respectively, on its flat sides. The active parts of the resistor elements are electrically connected in series by means of the break-through in the element carrier and are electroconductively connected to an electrical terminal connection of the element carrier. The liquid-cooled high-load resistor further includes two covers that each cover a flat side of the element carrier, to form an enclosed space between the cover and the flat side of the element carrier. The enclosed space is subdivided so as to provide a free space in the area of the inlet, the outlet, and the break-through, and to provide a cooling channel that embeds the active part of the resistor element. Thus, one obtains a liquid-cooled high-load resistor of a relatively small size, whose self-inductance is minimal and which is capable of being loaded with a high voltage and of being operated at high power levels that entail high losses.
