Abstract

A traction inverter system includes a capacitor module, a power module, a cold plate between and in contact with the modules, and an end plate defining an inlet and outlet. The modules and plates define a bore spanning the modules and plates, and a passageway in fluid communication with the inlet and outlet. The traction inverter system also includes a mechanical fastener occupying the bore, spanning the modules and plates, and clamping the modules and plates together.
