[0002] With the rapid development of the new energy vehicle industry, electric drive systems, as their core components, are facing increasingly higher requirements for performance and stability. In electric drive systems, electromagnetic interference (EMI) at the DC end is particularly prominent, especially its impact on system operation. To ensure the normal operation of electric drive systems, EMI filters are indispensable, and common-mode inductors are one of the key components. The function of common-mode inductors is to effectively filter out electromagnetic interference and ensure stable system operation.

[0003] However, in the current common-mode inductor design process, especially in the design of the common-mode inductor core size for DC-side EMI filters, a complete theoretical foundation has not yet been established. Designers are often forced to rely on existing cores for design. This approach not only makes it difficult to minimize the core volume, limiting the overall compactness and integration of the electric drive system, but also fails to fully consider the core's thermal design. The core's thermal design is crucial to ensure the stable operation of the common-mode inductor in high-temperature environments. Ignoring this issue may, to a certain extent, affect the spatial layout and performance optimization of new energy vehicles.

[0004] In order to solve the above problems, a common-mode inductor parameter design method is proposed. It comprehensively considers multiple aspects such as material selection, size design and thermal design of the magnetic core, aiming to achieve miniaturized design and efficient heat dissipation of the common-mode inductor, thereby meeting the high performance and stability requirements of the electric drive system of new energy vehicles.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field based on the embodiments of the present invention without making any creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0089] Examples, such as Figure 1 、 Figure 2 As shown, the present invention provides a common mode inductor parameter design method, comprising the following steps:

[0090] Step 1: Select the core material, determine the basic parameters of the core and common-mode inductor winding, and determine the copper busbar width of the common-mode inductor winding based on the busbar current, current density and copper busbar thickness. Collect characteristic data of different core materials, including but not limited to magnetic permeability, saturation magnetic induction intensity, Curie temperature, loss characteristics, etc. Among them, the core material is nanocrystalline material or ferrite material, and other materials such as ferrite can also be selected. The collected material characteristic data are sorted out to establish a core material characteristic database for subsequent query and analysis, clarify the specific application scenarios of common-mode inductors, analyze the application requirements of common-mode inductors including operating frequency range, maximum current, required inductance value, ambient temperature, etc., and query the suitable materials in the established core material characteristic database according to the application requirements. For example, for high-frequency applications (>100 MHz), nickel-zinc ferrite can be selected because it has low initial magnetic permeability but can maintain constant magnetic permeability at high frequencies. For low-frequency applications (10kHz to 50MHz), manganese-zinc ferrite can be selected because of its high magnetic permeability and can provide a larger inductance value. The core shape and common-mode inductor winding structure are determined based on the selected core material. The core is a rectangular core, and other core shapes can also be selected. The common-mode inductor winding uses two sets of positive and negative copper bars, which can be overlapped or placed in parallel. Overlapping the two sets of copper bars can optimize electromagnetic performance and reduce parasitic effects. Placing the two sets of copper bars in parallel is suitable for scenarios that require a larger heat dissipation area. Based on the design requirements of the electric drive system, determine the current, current density, and copper bar thickness in the DC busbar, and then calculate the copper bar width to meet the performance requirements of the electric drive system;

[0091] The calculation formula for the copper busbar width is:

[0093] Where, l copper is the width of the copper busbar, I rms is the current in the DC busbar, J is the current density, w copper is the copper busbar thickness;

[0094] Step 2: Determine the length, width, and height of the magnetic core based on the mutual distances between the copper busbar, the core shell, and the core body, as well as the width of the core body. Set the distance between the copper busbar and the core shell based on the electromagnetic design and heat dissipation requirements. This distance ensures that the heat generated by the copper busbar can be effectively transferred to the core shell, and avoids adverse effects of the electromagnetic field on the core shell. Set the distance between the core shell and the core body based on the heat dissipation and electromagnetic isolation requirements of the core. This distance ensures that the heat of the core body can be effectively transferred to the core shell, and avoids electromagnetic interference between the core body and the core shell. Set the width of the core body based on the electromagnetic design requirements of the core. This width meets the requirements of the inductance value and current carrying capacity of the core, ensuring that the core can provide a stable inductance value under normal working conditions. Combined with the width of the copper busbar and the distance between the copper busbar and the core shell, the distance between the core shell and the core body is the best. The length of the magnetic core is calculated based on the distance between the core shell and the core body, and the width of the core body. The length of the magnetic core ensures that the copper busbar can be completely covered by the magnetic core to achieve effective electromagnetic shielding and heat conduction. The width of the magnetic core is calculated based on the thickness of the copper busbar, the distance between the copper busbar and the core shell, the distance between the core shell and the core body, the width of the core body, and the insulation distance between the two copper busbars.

[0097] Where, l case is the length of the core, l copper is the width of the copper busbar, w1 is the distance between the copper busbar and the core shell, w2 is the distance between the core shell and the core body, w core is the width of the core body;

[0098] The calculation formula of the core width is:

[0099] w case =2w copper +2w1+4w2+2w core +w3;

[0100] Where w case is the width of the core, w copperis the thickness of the copper busbar, w3 is the insulation distance between two copper busbars;

[0101] The calculation formula for the core height is:

[0102]

[0103] Where h case is the height of the core, L is the common mode inductance, μ0 is the vacuum permeability, μ r is the relative magnetic permeability;

[0104] Step 3: Determine the volume of the core based on the length, width, and height of the core, organize it into a standard format, and perform parameterization. For rectangular cores, calculate the volume of the core based on the determined length, width, and height of the core. Organize the volume of the core into a standard format to facilitate subsequent analysis and optimization, and organize it into a parameterized formula for easy subsequent use.

[0105] The calculation formula of the core volume is:

[0106]

[0107] Where V core is the volume of the core, l case is the length of the core, w case is the width of the core, h case is the height of the core, l copper is the width of the copper busbar, w1 is the distance between the copper busbar and the core shell, w2 is the distance between the core shell and the core body, w core is the width of the core body, w3 is the insulation distance between the two copper bars, and w copper is the copper busbar thickness, L is the common mode inductance, μ0 is the vacuum permeability, μ r is the relative magnetic permeability;

[0108] The above formula is organized into a standard format as follows:

[0109]

[0110] in:

[0111]

[0112] Step 4: Based on the determined core volume, perform derivative and solve to find the core body width that minimizes the core volume. Based on the calculated core volume, take the derivative of the core volume with respect to the core body width to obtain the derivative of the volume with respect to the width. Set the derivative of the volume with respect to the width to zero and solve to obtain the core body width w corresponding to the minimum volume. m , and verify the width obtained to make it meet the electromagnetic design and heat dissipation requirements;

[0113] The calculation formula for the width of the core body corresponding to the minimum volume is:

[0114]

[0115] Where w m is the width of the core body corresponding to the minimum volume,

Multiply the busbar loss and the busbar thermal resistance to obtain the busbar temperature rise. Calculate the core loss using the Steinmetz formula based on the material constant, operating frequency, and magnetic flux density. The magnetic flux density is obtained based on the inductance and current of the core. Calculate the core thermal resistance based on the thermal resistance from the core body to the core shell. Combine the core loss and the core thermal resistance to calculate the core temperature rise. Add the busbar temperature rise and the core temperature rise. Obtain the total temperature rise of the core shell based on the temperature rise of the core shell caused by the busbar loss and the core loss.

[0126] ΔT2=P loss_core R core-ca ;

[0127] Where ΔT1 is the busbar temperature rise, ΔT2 is the core temperature rise, R cop-ca is the thermal resistance from busbar to core housing, R core-ca is the thermal resistance from the core body to the core shell;

[0128] The total temperature rise of the core shell is calculated as follows:

[0129] ΔT total =ΔT1+ΔT2;

[0130] Where, ΔT total is the total temperature rise of the core shell;

[0131] Step 6. If the total temperature rise of the core shell exceeds the maximum allowable temperature, increase the distance between the core body and the core shell, and re-execute steps 2 to 5 until the temperature rise meets the requirements. Compare the calculated total temperature rise of the core shell with the maximum allowable temperature. If the total temperature rise of the core shell exceeds the maximum allowable temperature, increase the distance between the core body and the core shell, wherein the increased distance is determined according to the thermal design requirements and the heat dissipation capacity of the core. Recalculate the thermal resistance from the busbar to the core shell and the thermal resistance from the core body to the core shell according to the new distance between the core body and the core shell. Use the new thermal resistance and busbar loss to recalculate the busbar temperature rise. Use the new thermal resistance and core loss to recalculate the core temperature rise. Then, use the new busbar temperature rise and core temperature rise to obtain the new total temperature rise of the core shell. Compare the new total temperature rise of the core shell with the maximum allowable temperature. If the new total temperature rise of the core shell still exceeds the maximum allowable temperature, repeat steps 2 to 5 until the temperature rise meets the requirements.
