  • Publication number: 20230413478
    Abstract: A cooling apparatus of a power module includes a guide provided inside a manifold cover to control a flow of a cooling fluid, wherein the cooling fluid circulated inside the manifold cover forms a vertical turbulent flow by the guide so that cooling efficiency of the power module is secured only using an internal structure of the manifold cover. Thus, heat dissipation performance is improved without a separate fin plate or a separate nozzle injection device.

  • Publication number: 20230189487
    Abstract: A double-sided cooling apparatus for a power module, includes a first cooling module provided to be in contact with a first side of the power module to which a switching device is mounted, and allowing cooling fluid to flow therein; and a second cooling module provided to be in contact with a second side of the power module provided opposite to the first side, and including a tube allowing the cooling fluid to flow in the tube, wherein the first cooling module includes a manifold cover including a plurality of cooling channels formed by a plurality of guide walls extending in a first direction, and a fin plate including a plurality of fins extending in a second direction intersecting the first direction, and the cooling channel includes a blocker formed in a predetermined portion of the cooling channel so that the cooling fluid in the first cooling module flows in a mixed form of lateral flow and vertical flow of the cooling fluid.
