Abstract
A stator includes a core and an over-molded midsection arranged to define a plurality of slots, and a plurality of conductors wound within the slots. Portions of the midsection immediately adjacent to the slots define a plurality of protrusions disposed on opposite long faces of at least some of the slots. The protrusions extend into the at least some of the slots and between some of the conductors to establish a gap between the some of the conductors and to direct coolant between the some of the conductors.
