MATERIAL MATRIX FOR COOLING MEDIA ENHANCEMENT

摘要

An electric machine includes: a stator having stator windings; a rotor configured to interact electromagnetically with the stator; and a housing configured to house the stator and the rotor. A material matrix is disposed within the housing and in contact with the stator windings. The material matrix defines a plurality of passages configured for the cooling fluid to flow within to remove heat from the stator windings.
