Abstract

A rotating electrical machine includes: a rotor comprising a rotor core and a field winding wound round the rotor core; and a stator comprising a stator core and a stator winding wound round the stator core. The stator is arranged in opposition to the rotor with a predetermined spacing therebetween. the stator core is formed by punching a split piece, which comprises teeth for insertion of the stator winding thereinto and a core back on an outer periphery thereof, from a magnetic steel sheet, and laminating a plurality of those circular configurations in an axial direction, in which a plurality of the split pieces are arranged in a circle in a circumferential direction. The stator core has magnetic steel sheets, which are different in magnetic permeability in a diametrical direction, laminated at an axial end region of and in an axial central region of the stator core.

1. A rotating electrical machine comprising: a rotor comprising a rotor core and a field winding wound round the rotor core; and a stator comprising a stator core and a stator winding wound round the stator core, the stator being arranged in opposition to the rotor with a predetermined spacing therebetween, and wherein the stator core is formed by punching a split piece, which comprises teeth for insertion of the stator winding thereinto and a core back on an outer periphery thereof, from a magnetic steel sheet, and laminating a plurality of the split pieces in an axial direction, in which a plurality of the split pieces are arranged in a circle in a circumferential direction, a plurality of cooling ducts for flowing of a cooling medium in a diametrical direction are formed along the axial direction of the stator core, and wherein

the stator core comprises non-oriented magnetic steel sheets and grain-oriented magnetic steel sheets,

axial spacing between adjacent cooling ducts of the plurality of cooling ducts is differentiated in accordance with grain directionality of the non-oriented and grain-oriented magnetic steel sheets,

the non-oriented magnetic steel sheets are with cooling ducts separated by the relatively smaller axial spacing and the grain-oriented magnetic steel sheets are with cooling ducts separated by the relatively larger axial spacing, and

the non-oriented magnetic steel sheets with relatively smaller axially-spaced cooling ducts are laminated in a first axial region of the stator core and the grain-oriented magnetic steel sheets with relatively larger axially-spaced cooling ducts are laminated in a second axial region of the stator core, the first axial region of the stator core being more centrally located in the axial direction of the stator core relative to the second axial region of the stator core.
