Load Test

A load test was conducted to verify the overall thermal design. Figure 4-16 shows the board temperature rising with a 460W load. The heat sink temperature is only 32°C. Fuse and diode bridge are the hottest locations, but there is still enough margin, and the fuse cover can be removed to provide cooling.

Figure 4-17 shows the test waveform with a 460W load and the following channel assignments:

  • CH1(Blue): Observed rotor angle
  • CH2 (Cyan): AC input voltage
  • CH3 (Purple): DC bus voltage
  • CH4 (Green): Current of phase U

Figure 4-18 shows load test setup with a dynamometer.
