Abstract
A cooling system for a motor to power a compressor in a vapor compression system is provided. The cooling system includes a housing with a cavity enclosing the motor and defining a central axis and fluid directing features extending into the cavity and oriented parallel to the central axis. The cooling system further includes a fluid circuit configured to circulate a cooling fluid between the housing and the motor. The fluid circuit includes a first cooling fluid path defined by directing features that cause a first portion of cooling fluid to travel around a first portion of the motor and a second cooling fluid path defined by fluid directing features that cause a second portion of cooling fluid to travel around a second portion of the motor. The second portion of the motor is located opposite the first portion.
