What is photovoltaic inverter?

As a power electronic device, the main function of photovoltaic inverter is to convert the direct current generated by photovoltaic modules into alternating current. In a solar power generation system, inverter efficiency is an important factor determining the performance of a photovoltaic system.

Why does the photovoltaic need thermal management?

The failure of the photovoltaic inverter will lead to the shutdown of the photovoltaic system and directly lead to the loss of power generation, so high reliability is an important technical indicator of the photovoltaic inverter. The electronic components of the inverter have a rated working temperature. If the cooling effect of the inverter is not good enough, with the continuous operation of the inverter, the heat generated by the electronic components cannot be dissipated out, which will cause the temperature of the components to be too high and affect the The performance and working life of the inverter, so a radiator is needed to transfer the heat inside the inverter.

There are varieties of heat sink types for the inverter cooling, aluminum skived fin heat pipe heat sink is the most common which is used in photovoltaic inverter as skived fin can offer more excellent thermal performance than other manufacturing process heat sinks, skived fin heat sink is manufactured by skiving technology which can produce thinner fins, and it enables high fin density, which can create more surface area into a given volume, so skived fin heat sink has a better heat dissipation ability than other single solid construction heat sink such as extruded heat sink. Besides, the fins are peeled from the base, so there is no joint between the fins and the base, so no thermal resistance between the fins and base, and the heat transfer ability is great. As the power of photovoltaic is increasing, the single skived fin heat sink may not meet the thermal requirements, to improve the thermal performance for the high power photovoltaic inverter, we often embed some heat pipes into the base to contact the heat source. As we all know that the thermal conductivity of heat pipe is much better than any metal, so a skived fin heat sink with heat pipe can significantly improve the thermal performance.
