An apparatus and method relating to a generator comprising a housing defining an interior and fluidly separating the interior from surrounding ambient air, at least one of a rotor or stator located within the housing, a cooling circuit passing through at least a portion of the housing to cool the interior and recirculating a coolant having a density greater than the ambient air, and a jet pump having a motive fluid conduit fluidly coupled to the cooling circuit, a transport fluid circuit fluidly coupled to the ambient air.

Generator with jet pump having motive fluid for fluidly coupling to a cooling circuit

An apparatus and method for a generator for generating power having a rotary union between a rotor and a stator, the rotary union comprising a first fluid passage having a converging nozzle and located within the stator having a first inlet and a first outlet, a second fluid passage having a diverging nozzle and located within the rotor and having a second inlet and a second outlet, the second inlet is aligned with the first outlet and at least one gap located between the rotor and stator.
