Abstract

A stator for a rotary electric machine, the stator including a jacket and a stack of stator laminations placed inside the jacket, subassemblies of laminations of the stack having extensions with flow channels for passing a cooling fluid therethrough, the subassemblies being disposed in such a manner that fluid flowing along the stack is subjected to a succession of passes within the channels and of passes through wide zones extending between the channels, the stack laminations being arranged in such a manner that for at least one extension, and better for the majority, or even all of the extensions of a subassembly, the flow section made available to the flow of cooling fluid within the extension is greater than the flow section defined by the space extending radially between the extensions and the jacket.
