More Information
Summary:Stators for aircraft electric motors include a cantilever structure having a supported end and an unsupported end, wherein the cantilever structure includes an inlet support manifold and an outlet support manifold arranged at the supported end and a plurality of cooling plates extending from the inlet support manifold and the outlet support manifold to the unsupported end. A plurality of coils are arranged between and in thermal contact with the cooling plates and a core passes through the plurality of coils and the plurality of cooling plates. Each cooling plate defines a cooling channel that fluidly couples the inlet support manifold and the outlet support manifold, and the coils and the core are structurally supported by the plurality of cooling plates in a cantilevered manner at the supported end.
