Power Density in Liquid-Cooled Power Converters (Download)

Read this article online.

Power-supply electronic designs are constantly striving for miniaturization with optimum power density.  And, no doubt, such miniaturization will need more advanced thermal-management solutions. In the past, power-converter architectures have employed forced or natural convection cooling.

One key thermal-management technique for those shrinking power supplies and higher levels of power is liquid cooling, which has the ability of high heat removal.
