Patent attributes
A semiconductor module including a cooling apparatus and a semiconductor device mounted on the cooling apparatus is provided. The cooling apparatus includes a cooling fin arranged below the semiconductor device, a main-body portion flow channel through which a coolant flows in a predetermined direction to cool the cooling fin, a first coolant flow channel that is connected to one side of the main-body portion flow channel and has a first inclined portion upwardly inclined toward the main-body portion flow channel, and a conveying channel that, when seen from above, lets the coolant into the first coolant flow channel from a direction perpendicular to the predetermined direction or lets the coolant out of the first coolant flow channel in the direction perpendicular to the predetermined direction.
