Thermal design, analysis and optimization of a power charger for hybrid or electric vehicles
Abstract
Hybrid or electric vehicles require an on-board battery charger that converts AC to DC with high efficiency to charge the batteries. The charger should be compatible with all international power grids, should be designed for quick charging of the battery packs, and should cater to a broad range of vehicle platforms. Heat dissipation in the battery charger is usually very high. Hence, it is imperative to choose an adequate and easily adoptable cooling method to maintain the operating temperature of the electronic devices of the charger within safe limits for a reliable system. Thermal design, analysis and optimization of such a charger is presented and discussed in this paper.

“The bidirectional OBC also needs to be mechanically integrated inside an enclosure, which has to be sealed to avoid environmental contamination [76].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
