A magnetic assembly includes a winding and a housing disposed about the winding. The housing includes an interior surface contoured to conform to the winding to facilitate heat transfer between the winding and the housing. A method of manufacturing a magnetic assembly includes forming a contoured interior surface on a housing and assembling a winding into the housing such that the interior surface of the housing conforms to the winding to facilitate heat transfer between the winding and the housing.
