Abstract: An electric compressor motor includes a stator ring having a plurality of stator winding slots and a plurality of stator windings. Each of said stator windings is received in a stator winding slot of the plurality of stator winding slots. The stator ring also includes a plurality of cooling slots. Each cooling slot in the plurality of coolant slots is defined along an axial length of at least one corresponding stator winding slot of the plurality of stator winding slots such that a shared opening between each stator winding slot and at least one corresponding coolant slot is defined. The cooling slots are configured to allow coolant to directly contact at least one stator winding in the corresponding at least one stator winding slot.

Abstract: A method of gripping a substantially planar workpiece while providing compensation for variations in thickness is described. During the process, the workpiece is overdriven into a clamping member before clamping force is applied, and the positions of the clamping member before and after application of the clamping force are measured. These measurements are then used to control a compensating movement of the tooling table and optionally a final lift of the conveyance rails.

Abstract: A combustor for a gas turbine engine comprising a combustion chamber wall having formed therein at least one hole for admitting air into the combustion chamber and at least one air intake chute aligned with said hole. The air intake chutes are attached to the combustor wall in regions which, during operation, will be regions of low stress concentration.
