A power-electronics system includes a plurality of power modules each having a power stage and defining a side pocket. The power stages are stacked in an array such that the side pockets are interleaved with the power stages. A dummy module defines a first coolant pocket and is disposed within the array such that the first coolant pocket cooperates with one of the side pockets to define a coolant chamber.
