STATOR HEAT TRANSFER FEATURE

摘要

A dynamoelectric machine 10 includes a shaft 12, a rotor 14 radially outward from the shaft with the rotor 14 and shaft 12 arranged to rotate in unison, a stator 16 radially outward from the rotor with the stator being stationary relative to the rotor and shaft, and a heat transfer feature 22 adjacent to and radially outward from the stator 16. The heat transfer feature 22 includes a base 24 encasing the stator 16 and fins 26 extending radially outward from the base 24 with a configuration where the fins 26 extend an axial length that is less than a total axial length of the base and/or extend at least partially in a circumferential direction.
