[0081] It is understandable that the embodiment of the present application is illustrated and explained by taking the three-dimensional flow channel 11 as an example of a water-cooled heat dissipation device. In other words, the cooling medium of the three-dimensional flow channel 11 is water. It is understandable that in other embodiments, the cooling medium of the three-dimensional flow channel 11 can also be oil, gas, etc. The embodiment of the present application does not limit the cooling medium in the three-dimensional flow channel 11.
