Q-CHILL cold plates can cool the power electronics in wind turbines. The low-cost aluminum plates perform comparably to copper-based devices. The company now provides equipment for 500 kW to 4 MW power-conversion applications. Friction Stir Welded joints provide a leak-proof design and a high pressure rating.Clever internal construction and manufacturing methods provide uniform cooling of up to 18 large IGBT power modules. Q-CHILL cold plate features include a patent pending internal-fin design that provides a uniform cold-plate-surface temperature, exceptional heat rejection at cold-plate surfaces, and low pressure drops to reduce the need for large fluid pumps. Additional features include a dual-sided cooling capability, large cold plate size, and it’s compatible with industry accepted coolants.
