Abstract: The invention relates to a compartment for equipment likely to emit heat during its operation, in particular for a device for storing electrical energy for a motor vehicle, said compartment having at least one cooling plate arranged to have a cooling fluid flowing through it and arranged to cool said equipment. The compartment further includes an upper housing arranged to accommodate said electrical equipment, and a lower housing, in which at least one fluid connection element is placed in order to supply the cooling plate with fluid, the lower and upper housing being isolated from each other in a fluidly sealed manner.

Abstract: A thermal management system for an electric component has a housing for the electric component and a heat exchange plate extending over the surface of the lateral face of the housing. The plate has a fluid channel between a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet, a supply duct to supply the plate with fluid and a discharge duct, a casing defining the housing(s) and receiving the heat exchange plate and the supply and discharge ducts. The system includes a fluid collecting box arranged to collect fluid from a possible fluid leakage at the junction between the fluid inlet and the fluid outlet of the plate and the associated supply and discharge ducts, so as to prevent said leaked fluid from dripping into a bottom of the casing.
