Freewheeling Diode Thermal Model
The Freewheeling Diode Thermal Model dialog box is similar to the IGBT Thermal Model. The freewheeling diode transient thermal impedance or the fraction thermal coefficients can normally be found in the manufacturers' datasheet.
Note:
Certain aspects of the thermal modeling are defined commonly for the IGBT and the freewheeling diode (for example, topology of the thermal model, type, and parameters of the heatsink, and type of the thermal output). Therefore, those parameters are accessible only on the thermal parameter page for the IGBT.
