The flow channels of the existing cooling structure are generally axial flow channels or circumferential flow channels. The circumferential flow channels have a better cooling effect, but the inlet and outlet of the circumferential flow channels are located at opposite ends of the axial direction of the cooling jacket, which is not convenient for external cooling pipes.
