Predicting Temperatures in the Airbus Air-conditioning Power Converter

Predicting Temperatures in the Airbus Air-conditioning Power Converter In the Airbus, the power converter for the air-conditioning controls is cooled by the very system it controls. The module's base plate is mounted to the die cast housing of the turbine that circulates conditioned air throughout the cabin. Heat is conducted through the housing to stator blades that are immersed in the air drawn through the turbine. details>>
