Abstract In this paper, we demonstrate that the structural degradation of a silicon carbide (SiC) power module corresponding to thermal cycles can be detected and tracked non-destructively by transient thermal analysis method. The purpose of this evaluation is to analyze the distribution of the thermal resistance in the power module and to identify the structure deterioration part. The power module with SiC-MOSFET were assembled using ZnAl eutectic solder as device under test. The individual thermal resistance of each part such as the SiC-die, the die-attachment, the AMCs, and the baseplate was successfully evaluated by analyzing the structure function graph. A series of thermal cycle test between −40 and 250°C was conducted, and the power modules were evaluated their thermal resistance taken out from thermal cycle test machine at 100, 200, 500 and 1000 cycles. We confirmed the increase in thermal resistance between AMCs and base plate in each thermal cycle. The portion where the thermal resistance increased is in good agreement with the location of the structural defect observed by scanning acoustic tomography (SAT) observation.

In order to improve the heat dissipation performance and study the factors affecting the heat dissipation effect of a two-dimensional ordered porous structure, a thermal analysis of the radiator in the power module of a DC charging pile was carried out. Based on the thermal analysis of the grid-type radiator, the square-hole radiator is subjected to a thermal analysis, the heat dissipation performance of the two radiators is compared, and the factors affecting the heat dissipation effect of the square-hole radiator are explored. Research shows that the heat dissipation effect of the square-hole radiator, which represents a twodimensional ordered porous structure, is better than that of the grid-type radiator. The factors affecting the heat dissipation effect of the square-hole radiator are mainly related to the height of the radiator and are positively related to the heat dissipation effect of the radiator.
