Electrification of transport technology has increased significantly in recent years, driven by a need to reduce local emissions as well as decrease global CO2 production from non-renewable resources. This potential for environmental benefit, coupled with the presence of existing electricity distribution networks, has meant that technology such as battery energy storage and super-capacitors are becoming ever-more common in transport related applications. The increasing use of electricity in this sector provides a range of potential opportunities as well a number of complex challenges. One of the main challenges remains the thermal management of high-stress electrical components within these systems, which need to be kept within specific temperature ranges for reasons of performance, durability and safety. Providing this thermal control within the context of transportation dictates that the solutions employed must have low energy usage, while also being compact with minimal weight penalty. These constraints, coupled with the low temperature differentials often produced, mean that innovative ideas are needed to provide commercially successful solutions. The purpose of the work in this proposal is to theoretically and experimentally investigate the potential of new solutions to this problem, exploring the potential of multi-phase strategies to temperature control.

近年来，由于需要减少当地排放以及减少全球不可再生资源产生的二氧化碳，运输技术的电气化显著增加。这种潜在的环境效益，加上现有配电网络的存在，意味着电池储能和超级电容器等技术在交通相关应用中变得越来越普遍。电力在这一领域的使用日益增加，提供了一系列潜在的机会，也带来了一些复杂的挑战。其中一个主要挑战仍然是这些系统中高应力电气元件的热管理，出于性能、耐用性和安全性的考虑，这些元件需要保持在特定的温度范围内。在运输环境中提供这种热控制要求所采用的解决方案必须具有低能耗，同时还要以最小的重量损失紧凑。这些限制，加上经常产生的低温差，意味着需要创新的想法来提供商业上成功的解决方案。本研究的目的是从理论上和实验上探讨解决这一问题的新方法，探索多相策略在温度控制方面的潜力。
