By studying the substrate material, structure, chip distribution, and array form of the multi-chip light-emitting diode (LED) package, the heat-dissipation capacity of the LED package is improved. Finite element analysis and steady-state thermal analysis are used to simulate and analyze LED packages with different materials and structures. Using the theory of LED illuminance and uniformity, the illuminance of some structures is computed. The results show that the change of substrate material and structure can greatly impact heat dissipation, while changing array forms has little effect on heat dissipation. By improving the spatial distribution of the chip, the temperature superposition problem of the substrate is solved, and the illuminance and uniformity are improved while dissipating heat. The LED filaments of the combined, equidistant, chip-distribution mode have improved heat dissipation. The S-type equal difference has the highest illumination and high illumination uniformity.
With the increase of power level and integration in electric vehicle controllers, the heat flux of the key silicon-based IGBT (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor) device has reached its physical limit. At present, third-generation semiconductor devices including SiC MOSFETs (Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor) are gradually replacing the dominant IGBT module. The hybrid IGBT module consists of both and can improve the performance and reduce the cost of controllers. Limits due to the installation space, location, and other conditions in the car make it difficult to meet the requirements of controllers with an air-cooled heatsink due to their large size and limited heat dissipation capacity. A smaller and more powerful water-cooled heatsink case is required to ensure the heat dissipation of the IGBT in the controller. Based on previous experience in finite element numerical simulation, hydrodynamics calculation, and heat transfer calculation, ANSYS Workbench finite element software was used to analyze the thermal resistance of each structure inside the module and the heatsink structure. The fluid characteristics and heat transfer performance of three different flow channel structures were analyzed, and the design of the cooling flow fin was improved to provide a reference for the heat dissipation of the hybrid IGBT module.
