title = "Integrated Traction Drive Thermal Management: Keystone Project 3",
abstract = "The presentation represents a report of accomplishments during FY 2024 and is prepared for 2024 DOE VTO Annual Merit Review. The project goal is identifying pathways enabling high-performance, compact, and reliable integrated electric drives and facilitation of achieving DOE 2025 target of 33 kW/L system power density for an electric traction drive through support of other EDT consortium members in design and development of thermal management systems for their respective integrated drive concepts. Specific objectives are: 1) research and evaluation of motor-integrated power electronics packaging technologies and thermal management approaches; 2) explore novel materials and manufacturing options (3D printing with thermally enhanced polymers or ceramic materials) for key thermal management system components; 3) develop thermal management system and its sub-components to enable integrated electric drive DOE power density targets in collaboration with project partners; 4) support activities of DOE's Electric Drive Technologies (EDT) consortium members, Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL), University of Wisconsin and Georgia Tech research teams in thermal management component design and thermal modeling of their integrated traction drives.",
