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.
STATOR ASSEMBLY, ELECTRICAL MOTOR, WIND POWER GENERATOR SET AND METHOD FOR COOLING STATOR ASSEMBLY

SEALED AXIAL FLUX MOTOR WITH INTEGRATED COOLING
Conventional axial flux motors typically include multiple rotors and stators resulting in a larger and heavier motor. Additionally, conventional axial flux motors include a housing to protect the rotors and stators, but the housing is often difficult to seal from the environment leading to risks of contaminants (e.g., dirt, water) infiltrating the motor and causing failure over time. The present invention overcomes these limitations by disclosing an axial flux motor with a single rotor and two stators. The use of a single rotor reduces the size and weight of the motor. An inboard housing and an outboard housing mechanically support the two stators and are joined together to define an interior cavity. A ring seal is disposed between the two housings to ensure the interior cavity is sealed. Additionally, the two stators may actuate multiple degrees of freedom (DOF) including the rotation of a wheel and actuation of a suspension.
COOLING OF ACTIVE ELEMENTS OF ELECTRICAL MACHINES
The present disclosure relates to electrical machines and methods for cooling active elements of electrical machines.

An electrical machine comprises a rotor including a plurality of active rotor elements, a stator including a plurality of active stator elements, and an air gap separating the active rotor elements and the active stator elements. The electrical machine further comprises a radiation absorber arranged between a first and a second adjacent active rotor elements or between a first and a second adjacent active stator elements.
