Abstract
A dynamoelectric machine includes a shaft, a rotor radially outward from the shaft with the rotor and shaft arranged to rotate in unison, a stator radially outward from the rotor with the stator being stationary relative to the rotor and shaft, and a heat transfer feature adjacent to and radially outward from the stator. The heat transfer feature includes a base encasing the stator, the base having a first end, a second end, and an axial middle; a first set of fins extending radially outward from the base adjacent the first end and the second end; and a second set of fins extending radially outward from the axial middle of the base with the second set of fins each having a smaller surface area and being closer to one another than the first set of fins.
