A motor assembly for powering a fluid blower includes a stator, a rotor rotatable relative to the stator about an axis of rotation, and an inner shell. The inner shell includes axially opposite first and second shell ends and encloses, at least in part, the stator and the rotor. An outer housing at least partly surrounds the inner shell such that an axially extending fluid channel is defined between the inner shell and the outer housing. A motor controller is positioned within the outer housing and is configured to control at least one operational parameter of the motor assembly. Furthermore, the motor assembly includes a flow-directing endshield located within the outer housing and adjacent the first shell end. The rotor is supported, at least in part, by the flow-directing endshield. The flow-directing endshield is fluidly interposed between the fluid channel and motor controller and is configured to direct a fluid flow between the fluid channel and the motor controller.

An electrical assembly that with an inverter that is mounted to the field windings of a stator. The inverter has a plurality of power semiconductor packages (PSP), each of which including a semiconductor die, a plurality of electric terminals, which are electrically coupled to the semiconductor die, and a heat sink with a base, which is fixedly and electrically coupled to one of the electric terminals, and a plurality of fins that extend axially from the base in a direction away from the semiconductor die. The PSP's are arranged in a circumferentially spaced apart manner. The fins are arranged in rows and are progressively longer in length from a radially-inner most fin to a radially-outer most fin. Slots are formed in the base on a radially-inner side of the base. Each slot extends toward a radially-outer side of the base and intersects a corresponding one of the rows of fins.
