Content
In addition to the basics known from electrical engineering and materials science, this book also contains a more specialized chapter (Chapter 5) on the thermal design of cables and wiring system components. The basic equations of heat conduction are derived from vector analysis. However, emphasis is also placed on practical relevance. This is underpinned by exercises and exam tasks from the lecture "Wiring systems and power semiconductors".
The content
Wiring system structures
Cables and conductors, materials
Connection techniques such as soldering, crimping, welding, press-fitting
High-frequency cables
Heat propagation in wiring systems and power semiconductors
Fuses
Semiconductors
Service life design of power semiconductors
Test engineering
High-voltage wiring systems
The target groups: Bachelor's and Master's students of automotive electronics and automotive engineering as well as engineers in these disciplines.
