Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of frequency converters, in particular to a frequency converter housing and a frequency converter. Background Art
[0002] The frequency converter is an electric power control device that uses frequency conversion technology and microelectronics technology to control the motor by changing the frequency of the motor's working power supply.
[0003] During the operation of the inverter, due to the high-frequency on and off of power semiconductor devices (such as IGBT, MOSFET), power loss will be generated. This part of the loss is dissipated in the form of heat. The greater the load current of the motor driven by the inverter, the greater the current in the power devices and related circuits inside the inverter, which leads to more heat generation. Therefore, in order to effectively dissipate the heat generated by the inverter, air cooling is one of the most common heat dissipation methods and is widely used in small and medium power inverters. Air cooling is to install a fan inside or outside the inverter to force air flow and accelerate the heat dissipation.
