Electric machine with directly cooled windings

Abstract

An electric machine includes windings for creating electromagnetic fields and at least one fluid-tight internal housing. The group of windings is in an interior space of one of the at least one internal housing. Each of the at least one group of the windings includes at least two electric connecting sections for connecting the respective group of the windings to an external electrical circuit, wherein the at least two electric connecting sections reach from the interior space through a wall of the respective internal housing to outside the respective internal housing, wherein the at least one internal housing includes a coolant inlet and a coolant outlet, and wherein neighboring windings of the at least one group of the windings enclose gaps between each other, the gaps being in fluid communication with the respective coolant inlet and the coolant outlet to be flown through by a coolant.
