Problems solved by technology

However, if the switching frequency is increased, the heat generated by the core of the reactor increases, and the heat dissipation area of ​​the reactor decreases due to the miniaturization of the reactor, so the heat dissipation of the core decreases.
[0003] In addition, the core of a conventional reactor is covered with a resin case with low thermal conductivity, and a copper or aluminum coil is wound around the resin case.
Therefore, there is a problem that the thermal resistance from the core of the reactor to the environment outside the coil is high, and the heat dissipation is low.
There is a problem that since only about three core gaps are provided at most in order to improve the productivity of the reactor, the length of each position becomes longer and the eddy current loss of the coil increases

Abstract

The purpose of the present invention is to provide a reactor in which heat dissipation properties of a core are high and eddy-current loss of a coil is low. The reactor (1) according to the present invention is provided with a plurality of divided cores (10) that are made of a soft magnetic material and are formed in a shape such that an annular core is divided in the circumferential direction; acore gap member (20) that is made of a non-magnetic material and is disposed between the plurality of divided cores (10) in the annular core, which is formed by combining the plurality of divided cores (10); an annular heat-dissipating case (30, 31) that accommodates the plurality of divided cores (10) and the core gap member (20); and a coil (90) wound around the heat-dissipating case (30, 31). The heat-dissipating case (30, 31) is configured from a material having a heat transmission rate of 100 W / (m K) or higher.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to reactors. Background technique [0002] In recent years, there has been an increasing need for downsizing and higher output power conversion devices. It is known that in general, when the switching frequency of the semiconductor element included in the power conversion device is increased, the size of the reactor included in the power conversion device can be reduced. However, if the switching frequency is increased, the amount of heat generated by the core of the reactor increases, and since the heat dissipation area decreases due to miniaturization of the reactor, the heat dissipation of the core decreases. [0003] In addition, the core of a conventional reactor is covered with a resin case with low thermal conductivity, and a copper or aluminum coil is wound around the resin case. Therefore, there is a problem that the thermal resistance from the core of the reactor to the environment outside the coil is high, and...
