Abstract (en)

[origin: US6262906B1] An air-cooled power converter with gate turn-off power semiconductors, is described in which the cooling capacity is such that the temperature of the gate turn-off power semiconductor does not exceed a critical temperature limit, the power converter having optimized heat sinks, at least some of which are thermally connected in parallel, and the power converter is designed to operate at a continuous load of 1 to 20 megawatts, preferably of 2 to 10 megawatts.
