Abstract

A two-phase thermosyphon system was developed for cooling power devices having high heat fluxes, such as thyristas. The system utilizes an inert dielectric fluorocarbon as the heat-transfer medium, effecting heat transfer via boiling and condensation. The thermosyphon system demonstrated a maximum cooling capacity of 3 kW per power device.
