With the continuous advancement of industrial automation, VFDs have become widely used. Currently, VFDs are shrinking in size, and their corresponding heat dissipation structures are also constantly improving.
[0003] Existing technologies primarily utilize a combination of heat dissipation channels and fans to dissipate internal heat.
