Independent Material Testing
Experiment: Materials tested at different torque values
Summary: Grease performed best; Micro-Faze 3A4 slightly better
than leading Phase Change material
• Actual Thermal Images @ 26 ft-in torque; Equilibrated @ 38 amp, 1.6 volts
Thermal Imaging Details
Sample Tested @ several torques and power settings on a 12 pin 44 x 33 mm SiC module
- Max Equilibrium Temperature MF 3A4 and Phase Change; Settings for both = 221°C @ 231 watts
- Initial ΔT’s of 10.7 and 11.2°C, respectively at 12 in-lb torque
