Abstract
An example ram air turbine generator assembly includes a generator housing that holds a generator in axial alignment with a hydraulic pump. The generator housing includes a wall having contacting portions that contact a stator of the generator and spaced portions that are radially spaced from the stator. The generator wall is designed to be strong enough to withstand HLSD and windmilling vibrations, while flexible enough to accommodate thermal expansion.
