Cooling arrangement (7) for cooling an electrical unit (10), wherein the cooling arrangement comprises: a
heat sink (5), a substrate (6), wherein the
heat sink comprises: a
cooling channel (35) through which
coolant can flow in a predetermined direction, a cooling wall (50) on the side of the
cooling channel facing the electrical unit (10) to be cooled, wherein the substrate is positively connected to the
heat sink at the cooling wall, and is designed so that the electrical unit can be mechanically fixed to it on the side facing away from the heat sink, wherein the cooling arrangement is designed so that, in operation, the
coolant is guided through the
cooling channel at a predetermined operating pressure which is higher than the
ambient pressure which is present on the substrate on the side of the electrical unit to be cooled, and wherein a distance (D) between the cooling channel (35) and the cooling wall (50) is selected to be so small,that the heat sink, without the positively connected substrate, cannot ensure sufficient dimensional stability and / or sealing at the specified operating pressure, and the substrate and its positively connected connection to the heat sink on the cooling wall are designed such that the cooling arrangement can ensure this sufficient dimensional stability and sealing, and wherein the heat sink is monolithic. Also disclosed are an electronic
assembly with such a cooling arrangement, an electrical power converter with such an electronic
assembly, and methods for assembling these devices.
