An inverter apparatus includes a liquid path in which cooling water flows,
and in which the cooling water performs cooling at a cooling part located
directly underneath the power circuit part of the inverter apparatus. The
liquid path includes a first partial structure part formed between a feed
pipe and the cooling part, and having a liquid path cross-sectional
profile that is gradually reduced in the short-side direction of the
cooling part and that is gradually enlarged in the long-side direction
thereof; and a second partial structure part formed between the cooling
part and a drain pipe, and having a liquid path cross-sectional profile
that is gradually enlarged from the short-side of the cooling part and
that is gradually reduced from the long-side thereof.
