Abstract: A rotating machine includes a housing that defines an inlet for air to enter into the rotating machine and an outlet for the air to exit the rotating machine. The rotating machine can also include a bearing received in the housing and a shaft rotationally supported by the bearing. The shaft defines a rotational axis that extends in a longitudinal direction. The rotating machine also includes a fan attached to the shaft so as to be coaxially aligned with the bearing. The fan defines an airflow path including an intake that receives the air from the inlet of the housing and an exhaust that discharges the air from the intake toward the outlet of the housing. A portion of the airflow path between the intake and the exhaust is in a direction that is not parallel to the rotational axis.
