Abstract: A non-fluid cooled fast-charge electric vehicle (EV) cable includes a pair of cabled insulated conductors, a binder, a thermal layer of a synthetic porous material having extremely low density and extremely low thermal conductivity in a blanket, with a fiberglass cover and a jacket.

Abstract: An air cooling system for an electric vehicle charge cable includes a compressed air supply, at least one filter, at least one dryer and a super cooler subsystem for chilling compressed air from the compressed air supply. A coupling on the charging cable supplies the chilled compressed air to the charging cable. The system is configured to maintain an exterior surface of the charging cable below a predetermined temperature during vehicle charging. The system further includes a routing structure directing the chilled compressed air to flow back to a charging station to maintain the charging cable at a temperature of no more than a predetermined temperature. The system may operate in closed loop mode that is based on geographic climate zone. A method for air cooling an electric vehicle charging cable is also disclosed.
