A Study on Passive Cooling in Subsea Power Electronics

This paper proposes a simplified approach to model the thermal behavior of the insulated-gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs) in a subsea power electronic converter. The models are based on empirical relations for natural convection in water, and IGBT datasheet values. The proposed model can be used in...
