Abstract: A cooling jacket surrounding the stator of an electric machine, having an inlet and a plurality of outlets disposed at ends of the cooling jacket, distributed in circumferential direction and configured to create liquid jets exiting the cooling jacket in a radial direction towards end windings at the axial ends of the machine. Coolant liquid flow guiding elements within the cooling jacket are configured so as to create a circumferentially homogeneous or more homogenous axial liquid flow towards the liquid outlets and/or towards the liquid jet devices.

Abstract: A stack of laminations for a stator of an electric machine, wherein each lamination comprises a plurality of teeth, and a plurality of holes, wherein the laminations are aligned relatively to one other such that the teeth form winding spaces for receiving stator windings, and the holes form at least one axially extending cooling channel inside the stack, wherein adjacent holes of at least two adjacent laminations are geometrically different.

Abstract: An electric motor cooling jacket enclosing a surface of an electric motor stator and having protuberances adapted for contact with the surface of the stator, with fluid passageways formed by the cooling jacket body, the protuberances, and the surface of the electric motor stator, wherein the fluid passageways are arranged to permit a cooling fluid to flow in a serpentine path across the surface of the stator to remove heat from the stator. Spray rings are fluidly coupled with the fluid passageways so as to permit the cooling fluid to flow into the fluid passageways, across the outer circumference of the electric motor stator, and out from orifices in the spray rings to cool the windings of the stator. The protuberances are formable using a pair of mold halves aligned anti-symmetrically with one another so that a serpentine fluid path is formed when casting the cooling jacket body.
