Abstract
A cooling system for an electrical machine includes at least one set of heat-conducting inserts positioned so as to transmit heat from at least one part of the winding in the stator to a heatsink. The heatsink may be the frame of the machine itself, but could also be a coolant pipe mounted at one or both ends of the stator. One form of insert is arranged between windings to draw heat away from the sides of the poles. Another form of insert is arranged on the ends of the poles to draw heat from that region.
