Abstract
A fluid jacket is disclosed herein that generally includes an enclosure component and a stator carrier to define a fluid pocket. Indentations, embossments, or other features can be defined on one of the enclosure component or the stator carrier to provide a more turbulent flow within the fluid pocket. The enclosure component and stator carrier can be laser welded to each other. A constriction can also be defined within the fluid pocket, which can be formed via a relative flattening to straight portion of the enclosure component or the stator carrier. This constriction can effectively restrict the flow of fluid within the fluid pocket, thereby ensuring that fluid is directed circumferentially around the fluid pocket.
