The present document relates to an electric drive unit, comprising: a stator configured to produce a stator magnetic field, at least a first rotor including first rotor windings, the first rotor windings for instance including multi-phase windings, and at least a first inverter electrically connected with the first rotor windings and configured to produce an electric current in the first rotor windings for producing a first rotor magnetic field. The stator magnetic field is configured to interact with the first rotor magnetic field to exert a torque on the first rotor. The present document further relates to a method of operating the electric drive unit.

Provided is an auxiliary wye ring configured for supplemental attachment to a deployed generator. The generator includes a rotor and windings extending circumferentially around the rotor. The auxiliary wye ring includes connection points for coupling to an original wye ring attached to the deployed generator prior to deployment.

A dynamoelectric machine includes a shaft, a rotor arranged fixedly on the shaft for conjoint rotation, and a slip ring system enabling a rotor winding system to be contacted electrically and including a slip ring body having slip rings arranged spaced-apart axially behind one another and assigned to an electrical phase. The slip ring body is connected fixedly to the shaft for conjoint rotation and has between an inner side thereof and the shaft a section which forms an axially open cavity on both skies. In a region of the slip ring system, the shaft is hollow with a hollow shaft portion assigned to the slip ring system for routing feed lines to the rotor winding system. Recesses are provided on the cavity axially on an inside and axially on an outside for introducing a cooling medium flow axially into the cavity and discharge thereof into an outlet region.
