Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An electrical rotor machine and a method of manufacturing the same are disclosed. According to at least one aspect of the present disclosure, the method includes forming a stator core from two or more subcores and inserting the separate subcores into a housing before windings are wound through and around the subcores to form a stator. In such embodiments, the housing includes a locating feature structured to position and support the subcores such that a flow channel is formed between the subcores. The locating feature enables both radial and axial cooling of the stator core while reducing pressure losses within the cooling flow path.
