Abstract
Heat sink cooling apparatus (4) includes a conduit (8) having an electrically conductive first portion (10) providing a first electrical terminal, an electrically conductive second portion (12) providing a second electrical terminal, and an electrically insulative intermediate portion (14) between and electrically isolating the first and second portions (10 and 12). The conduit (8) has an internal passage (16) receiving coolant (18) flowing therethrough including through the first and second portions (10 and 12) and the intermediate portion (14) therebetween. A heat generating electric current conducting component (6) is mounted on the first conduit portion and connected by an electrical conductor (26) to the second conduit portion (12) such that electric current flows through the component (6) and the conductor (26) between the first and second conduit portions (10 and 12) providing the main electrical terminals. The intermediate conduit portion (14) prevents a short circuit between the main terminals. Coolant (18) flowing through the conduit (8) cools the electric component (6) mounted to the first conduit portion (10).
