Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application relates to the technical field of inductors, in particular to an inductor for assisting electronic element heat dissipation. BACKGROUND
[0002] Due to the current resistance and large working current of the inductor, a large amount of heat is accumulated after long-time work, which causes the temperature of the inductor to continuously rise.
