A charger comprising:
- an internal casing including a power module on one side, the power module including a power conversion device converting alternating current into direct current and an intake fan intaking cooled air to reduce heat occurring during a conversion process;
- and
- a vortex tube assembly discharging the cooled air through the intake fan.
A cooling system comprising:
- an air compressor compressing air to generate pressured air;
- an oil filter purifying oil used in the air compressor;
- an air dryer removing moisture from the pressured air;
- and
- a charger configured to be cooled using the pressured air from which the moisture has been removed,
- wherein the charger includes:
- an internal casing including a power module on one side, the power module including a power conversion device converting alternating current into direct current and an intake fan intaking cooled air to reduce heat occurring during a conversion process;
- and
- a vortex tube assembly discharging the cooled air through the intake fan.
