Direct-cooled dynamoelectric machine stator core with enhanced heat transfer capability

摘要

In a dynamoelectric machine stator core assembly wherein adjacent packages of stacked laminations are separated by a plurality of radially extending spacer blocks, and wherein each adjacent pair of spacer blocks define in cooperation with adjacent axially spaced laminations, a cooling duct, the improvement comprising a plurality of turbulator elements in each cooling duct, each turbulator element extending into the duct from one of the adjacent axially spaced laminations.
