DESCRIPTION:While the field of power electronics is trending towards design
 s with higher power densities\, aerospace applications have had difficulti
 es achieving terrestrial metrics due to limitations on reliability and rad
 iation hardened components. In the most recent New Frontiers\, Dragonfly (
 DF)\, a rotocraft system which is being designed to fly on Titan\, one of 
 Saturn’s moons\, the electric power subsystem requires both a high relia
 bility and a high-power-density design. This talk provides an overview on 
 the design challenges\, considerations\, and preliminary results for the e
 lectrical and thermal management systems of the rotor drive inverter which
  transitions power from the battery to the motors. Additional design consi
 derations for high-reliability space applications will also be discussed.\
