Northwestern Formula Racing - Inverter Container

A liquid- and air-cooled enclosure built for a custom inverter

I designed the enclosure for NFR23’s custom inverter project, incorporating custom water-cooling cold plates alongside a set of air-cooling fans to keep the IGBT and surrounding boards within a safe operating temperature.

The custom inverter project itself was eventually shelved in favor of an off-the-shelf inverter, because of time constraints late in the season.
