[0002] With the rapid development of new energy vehicles, the demand for EV switching power supplies is increasing. In order to prevent dust, water, heat and shield interference, EV switching power supply modules are usually installed in an aluminum alloy shell. In order to increase power, EV switching power supply modules need good heat dissipation. Water cooling is currently a more economical and commonly used method. With the market demand for high-power output of EV switching power supplies, for example, if the output power is exactly twice as high and the output voltage is the same, the solution may be to connect two EV switching power supplies of the same specification in parallel.
