AI Technical Summary
Offshore wind power converters have low heat dissipation efficiency in marine environments, are susceptible to corrosion, and are difficult to install and maintain, making it difficult to meet the requirements for high performance and reliability.
The wind power converter adopts phase change cooling as its whole unit, combined with cabinet structure and copper busbar connection. Phase change cooling technology is used to replace the traditional water cooling system. The phase change cooling working fluid absorbs or releases heat, and the copper busbar connection stabilizes the current transmission. Waterproof grooves and sealing strips are set to isolate high salt spray and humidity.
It improves the corrosion resistance and durability of the converter, ensures the service life of electrical and structural components, enhances the safety performance and cooling effect of the equipment, and reduces noise and space occupation.
