ELECTRIC MOTOR COOLING WITH OSCILLATING HEAT PIPES
A stator and a motor including a stator. The stator includes a stator hub, a plurality of stator teeth extending from the stator hub that define a stator slot having a stator slot base, at least one winding disposed in the stator slot, and one or more oscillating heat pipes disposed at least partially in the at least one winding. The at least one winding is held apart from the stator slot base so that a cooling channel is defined between an inner winding portion of the at least one winding and a portion of the one or more oscillating heat pipes is disposed in the channel so cooling fluid can be passed between the stator slot base and the inner winding portion to cool the inner winding portion via at least operation of the one or more oscillating heat pipes.

ROTOR-COOLING DEVICE AND ROTATING MACHINE COMPRISING SAME
The device for cooling a rotor of a rotating machine comprises: in a rotor assembly (31) comprising the rotor and rotating with the rotor, at least one open cavity (40) having a single opening opening out around the axis of rotation of the rotor, and facing the single opening in the cavity, a cooling-liquid injector (49). The single opening in the cavity (40) simultaneously forms the inlet for the cooling liquid injected by the injector (49) and the discharge for the cooling fluid leaving the cavity in the form of vapour.
In some embodiments: the rotor assembly (31) comprises a shaft (33) and an electric rotor (39) surrounded by an electric stator (46), the cavity (40) being formed, at least, in the shaft (33); the electric stator (46) is traversed, parallel to the axis of rotation of the rotor, by at least one channel (47) configured to convey at least some of the vapour obtained by evaporation of the cooling liquid in the cavity (40) of the shaft (33), and/or the air gap (55) between the electric rotor (39) and the electric stator (46) is configured to convey at least some of the vapour obtained by evaporation of the cooling liquid in the cavity (40) of the shaft (33).
