A rotary electric machine includes a rotor, a stator disposed facing the rotor in a radial direction having a stator core with a plurality of slots aligned in a circumferential direction and a stator winding wound around the slots of the stator core, and a cooling mechanism for cooling first and second coil-end groups of the stator winding by dropping a liquid coolant from an outer peripheral side thereof. The stator is disposed along an inner circumferential surface of at least one of the first and the second coil-end groups of the stator winding, and there is provided a shielding member for preventing the liquid coolant from falling into the inner circumferential side of the first and the second coil-end groups. Thus, it is possible to cool throughout the first and the second coil-end groups efficiently and reliably by the liquid coolant, a sufficient cooling effect can be obtained. |
