Rotor of rotary electric machine

1. A rotor of a rotary electric machine, the rotor comprising:

a rotor core;

a permanent magnet embedded in the rotor core; and

a rotating shaft, the rotor being supported by the rotating shaft, the rotating shaft including a shaft refrigerant passage through which a refrigerant flows;

the rotor core including at least one core refrigerant passage that guides the refrigerant supplied from the shaft refrigerant passage to a radially outer end of the rotor core such that the refrigerant is released to a gap between the rotor core and a stator,

the core refrigerant passage including:

a central refrigerant passage provided radially inside the permanent magnet so as to extend in an axial direction, the central refrigerant passage being opened on axial end surfaces of the rotor core,

an inner refrigerant passage communicating the shaft refrigerant passage with the central refrigerant passage,

an outer refrigerant passage communicating the central refrigerant passage with the gap, and

dams provided on both axial-end sides of the central refrigerant passage, the dams being provided axially outside the outer refrigerant passage, the dams being projecting from a radially outer side toward a radially inner side in the central refrigerant passage.

2. The rotor of the rotary electric machine, according to claim 1 , wherein

the outer refrigerant passage is provided at only one position in the axial direction.
