Patent number: 11313819Abstract: A method for determining a thermal impedance of a sample device is described. According to the method, a sample device is heated to an initial temperature. A pulsed power including a sequence of pulses is applied to the sample device. Temperature of the sample device is measured in a time-dependent manner. A thermal impedance of the sample device is determined based on the temperature of the sample device and the pulsed power.Type: GrantFiled: July 12, 2019Date of Patent: April 26, 2022Assignee: Technische Hochschule IngolstadtInventors: Gordon Elger, Maximilian Schmid, Alexander Hanss

Patent number: 9024466Abstract: Disclosed is a method allowing the advantageous operation of an on-board electrical system (10) of a motor vehicle without high energy expenditure. Provided is an on-board electrical system (10) comprising a vehicle battery (16), an electrical load (30, 48) and a double-layer capacitor (32) with a positive and a negative terminal (34, 36). Switching means (22) are provided that couple the positive terminal (34) with the vehicle battery (16) and the negative terminal (36) with the electrical load (30, 48) in a first switching state, and that have at least one additional switching state. In the first switching state, an overvoltage can be compensated since the double-layer capacitor (32) is connected in series with opposite polarity to the vehicle battery (16). Preferably, the polarity of the double-layer capacitor (32) can be reversed, and the latter can be bridged. The switching means (22) can also assume a switching state in which the electrical load (30, 48) is decoupled from the vehicle battery (16).Type: GrantFiled: May 22, 2010Date of Patent: May 5, 2015Assignees: Audi AG, Hochschule IngolstadtInventors: Josef Winkler, Johannes Pforr
