<p>A baffle 30 for a rotating electrical machine is provided. The machine comprises: a shaft 10; a bearing 16 for supporting the shaft; a rotor 12 mounted on the shaft on one side of the bearing; and a rotating component 24 mounted on the shaft on the other side of the bearing. The baffle 30 is arranged to be mounted between the bearing 16 and the rotating component 24 for restricting air flow between the bearing 16 and the rotating component. The baffle 30 can reduce a pressure differential across the bearing 16 caused by the rotating component 24, which can help to reduce oil leakage from the bearing 16.</p> |
