Rotating electric machine
Abstract:
In a rotating electric machine, a stator includes a stator core having slots formed therein and a stator coil comprised of phase windings each of which includes in-slot portions and turn portions. The turn portions of the phase windings together constitute a coil end part of the stator coil. Further, a cooling mechanism is provided to drop liquid coolant onto the coil end part. Moreover, the turn portions of the phase windings include long-pitch turn portions and short-pitch turn portions. In the coil end part, there are axially-overlapping pairs of the long-pitch and short-pitch turn portions over an entire circumferential range of the stator coil. For each axially-overlapping pair of the long-pitch and short-pitch turn portions, the short-pitch turn portion is located axially inside the long-pitch turn portion and faces the long-pitch turn portion through a void space formed therebetween over entire lengths of the long-pitch and short-pitch turn portions.
