A novel direct water and double-sided cooled power module and a compact inverter for electrified vehicles

Direct Water and Double-Sided Cooled Power Modules (DWDSCPM) are especially attractive due to high thermal performances. The DWDSCPM was able to reduce the thermal resistance by 50% and increase power density of the traction inverter by 70% in comparison with a conventional power module.
