Abstract
In this study, we investigated the cause of a voltage controller failure that occurred in the operation of a combat vehicle and attempted to establish a solution for the failure. The failure in the voltage controller was found to be related to thermal resistance, which could be identified by disassembly analysis and a high temperature operation test. Especially, in the disassembly analysis, there was damage caused by high temperature such as soot on the molding material and cracking of the resisters. In addition, in the high temperature operation test, the test results show that the internal temperature of the voltage controller was relatively higher than the external temperature. This means that the voltage controller failure could be attributed to the excessive heat and insufficient thermal resistance. In order to improve the thermal resistance of the voltage controller, several designs with changing circuits and structures were devised. Improvement of thermal resistance was verified by measuring reduction of internal temperatures in the high temperature comparison test.
