Arrangement for cooling of an electrical machine

1. An arrangement for cooling of an electrical machine, wherein

the electrical machine comprises a rotor, a stator and an air-cooling arrangement,

the stator comprises a plurality of stacked laminate-plates,

the laminate-plates are positioned and fixed by a structural support and by a plurality of end-plates in relation to a central-part of the stator to form an air-gap between the rotor and the stator,

an inner cavity is formed by the end-plates, the stator and the laminate-plates:

an outer cavity, which includes the air-gap, is formed by the end-plates, the stator, and an internal surface of the rotor,

slits which provide an air path from the inner cavity to the outer cavity via the air-gap of the outer cavity are located between at least a portion of the laminate plates, and

an air circuit is formed via the air path and openings of the end-plates in order air to circulate air from the inner cavity back to the inner cavity,

wherein the air-cooling arrangement is connected by attachments with the stator such that the air-cooling arrangement is located within the inner cavity,

the cooling air-cooling arrangement comprises a fan configured to blow air from the inner cavity through the air circuit such that the blown air passes along the internal surface of the rotor through the openings of the end-plates and passes along the central-part of the stator and back to the air-cooling arrangement.

2. The arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein the central-part of the stator extends along a rotation-axis of the rotor.

3. The arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein

the stacked laminate-plates comprise a plurality of slots located on a first side of the laminate-plates, the first side facing toward the air-gap, and

metal-windings of a stator-coil are arranged in the slots.

4. The arrangement according to claim 3 , wherein the structural support comprises a plurality of bars or profiles, which penetrates the laminate-plates and which are connected to the laminate-plates via welding, or

the structural support are located on a second-side of the laminate-plates, the second-side being opposite to the first-side.

5. The arrangement according to claim 4 , wherein the stator-coils exceeds the slots of the laminate-plates to form winding-heads of the stator-coil.

6. The arrangement according to claim 5 , wherein the air-cooling arrangement is arranged to circulate air through the air-gap and the winding-heads.

7. The arrangement according to claim 1 , where in the air-cooling arrangement is connected with an air-to-liquid heat-exchanger, which is arranged and used to get heat out from the cavity by a cooling-liquid.

8. The arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein

the electrical machine is a generator, and/or

the electrical machine is located inside a wind-turbine, and/or

the electrical machine is encapsulated by a shell.

9. The arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein the stator is arranged as inner-stator, and the rotor is arranged as outer-rotor.

10. The arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein the end-plates and the structural-support are connected.

11. A generator, comprising:

an arrangement for cooling of an electrical machine according to claim 1 .

12. The generator according to claim 11 , wherein the central-part of the stator extends along a rotation-axis of the rotor.

13. The generator according to claim 11 , wherein

the stacked laminate-plates comprise a plurality of slots located on a first side of the laminate-plates, the first side facing toward the air-gap, and

metal-windings of a stator-coil are arranged in the slots.

14. The generator according to claim 13 , wherein the structural support are located on a second-side of the laminate-plates, the second-side being opposite to the first-side.
