Abstract

The high working junction temperature of power component is the most common reason of its failure.So the thermal design is of vital importance in electronic control unit(ECU)design.By means of circuit simulation,the thermal design of ECU for electronic unit pump(EUP)fuel system is applied.The power dissipation model of each power component in the ECU is created and simulated. According to the analyses of simulation results,the factors which affect the power dissipation of components are analyzed.Then the ways for reducing the power dissipation of power components are carried out.The power dissipation of power components at different engine state is calculated and analyzed.The maximal power dissipation of each power component in all possible engine state is also carried out based on these simulations.A cooling system is designed based on these studies.The tests show that the maximum total power dissipation of ECU drops from 43.2 W to 33.84 W after these simulations and optimizations.These applications of simulations in thermal design of ECU can greatly increase the quality of the design,save the design cost and shorten design time
