As a result of a lower arm side having a small thermal resistance being positioned downstream of the coolant flow, cooling efficiency of the lower arm positioned on the downstream side of the coolant flow becomes higher than that of an upper arm positioned on an upstream side. Hence, rise in coolant temperature on the upstream side can be suppressed, and the first and second semiconductor chips disposed upstream and downstream can be effectively cooled. Alternatively, even when the coolant temperature rises on the upstream side, the first and second semiconductor chips disposed upstream and downstream can be effectively cooled by sufficient cooling being performed on the downstream side based on the high cooling efficiency. Therefore, the rise in semiconductor chip temperature on the downstream side to a temperature higher than that on the upstream side can be suppressed.
