Abstract: A passive cooling topology and a manufacturing method are described for a transformer to achieve improved power density at a light weight. No fans or cooling liquids are required. Vertical planar faces are used for the central core element, the primary and secondary windings, the outer core element, and a finned heat sink. The primary flow for thermal cooling is radial, through the vertical planar faces. The transformer may be configured to float at the potential of a high voltage transmission line, leading to improved thermal characteristics. Eddy currents are reduced using repeating air gaps in the central core, and a continuously transposed cable comprising multiple strands per turn in the secondary winding. Air pockets in the windings are eliminated using a potting resin and vacuum pressure impregnation (VPI).

Abstract: An upper end portion and a lower end portion of a second magnetic portion of a coil component are further away from a coil than when a third part and a fifth part are not present. For this reason, a magnetic flux is unlikely to be concentrated in the upper end portion and the lower end portion of the second magnetic portion, so that magnetic saturation is unlikely to occur. Therefore, improvement of direct current superimposition characteristics is realized in the coil component.
