“…A number of failure mechanisms in these sub-components can be linked to temperature and therefore, methods that can improve thermal management of the converter can be beneficial for the overall reliability of the converter. The power sandwich integration is one such concept [68], [69] that uses new passive components that have equal heights and are sandwiched between two substrates allowing heat transfer in both directions.…”

Abstract-Availability is an important factor to be considered when designing wind turbine generator systems. The quest for increased availability is based on the following five design approaches -design for component reliability, active control for reliability, design for fault tolerance, prognostics, and design for maintainability. This paper reviews methods focussing on the first three, i.e. component reliability, active control, and fault tolerance. The paper further identifies some promising directions for further research.

This paper presents a novel power electronics construction technology for surface mount technology (SMT) automated manufacturing of power convertersPower Sandwich. The Power Sandwich manufacturing method employs new x-dimension components, having the same height (x) and double sided SMT electrical terminations. The components are stacked between planar substrates and can be soldered on both, top and bottom sides using the multilayer Power Sandwich assembly process. The process is compatible with standard SMT assembly line with some alternations. By arranging the components in different stack layers an increase in power density and better heat removal from the systems can be achieved. Power Sandwich is an enabling integration technology for achieving both SMT automated construction and high power densities of power electronics converters.
