CooliBlade AURORA Evaluation Kit
Redefining Thermal Management for 900W+ Power Modules
CooliBlade AURORA IGBT is a powerful heat sink platform for high-power applications.
It is a plug-and-play cooling solution designed for the most common IGBT modules. AURORA performs best in high power levels where heat sinks and heat pipes falter.
AURORA is now available as an evaluation kit that lets you quickly test and study its features and performance.

AURORA Benefits
High-performance
Power levels up to several kilowatts/module can be achieved. The structure of the NEOcore evaporator and the optimized fin structure together guarantee optimal efficiency for power modules and PCBs.
Easy integration
AURORA IGBT is designed to be a plug-and-play solution for IGBT cooling. Its dimensions are easily adjusted based on the customer’s specifications, making retrofitting possible with vertical and horizontal installation.
Small footprint
AURORA is an ideal solution for vertical installation with only a narrow space available.
Cost-efficient
AURORA can be produced by an aluminum extrusion process, making it cost-efficient. CooliBlade NEOcore technology is smoothly integrated into the extruded aluminum element.
AURORA Test Results
AURORA performance was compared with an aluminum reference and state-of-the-art heat pipe heat sink. All the heat sinks shared the same form factor.
RESULTS:
•AURORA offers dramatic improvements in thermal performance at high heat flux.
•AURORA enables the use of semiconductor modules with higher power levels and densities than the other technologies.
The thermal resistance of AURORA drops as power density increases. The aluminum heat sink and heat pipe performance decrease as the power levels increase, whereas the AURORA performance improves as the power levels increase.
RESULTS:
•Heat pipe performance decreases significantly when power density is higher than 9.25 W/cm2
•AURORA increases the performance significantly at power levels above 1000 W
•AURORA thrives at higher power densities. When the heat pipe starts to dry, AURORA’s performance keeps improving.
