ELECTRIC MACHINE INCLUDING A THERMAL CONTROL MODULE

摘要

An electric machine includes a stator. The stator includes a stator core, and a plurality of windings supported by the stator core. The plurality of windings include a first end turn portion and a second end turn portion. An adaptable cooling system is fluidically connected to the housing. The adaptable cooling system includes a first coolant circuit configured to guide a coolant in a heat exchange relationship with the stator core, and a second coolant circuit configured to guide a coolant in a heat exchange relationship with one of the first and second end turn portions. A thermal control module is operably connected to the adaptable cooling system. The thermal control module includes a coolant demand schedule described in a machine specific coolant map and is configured and disposed to selectively adapt coolant delivery to the first and second coolant circuits based on the coolant demand schedule.
