The internal face 17, once the assembly of the rotating electrical machine 1 according to the invention has been completed, extends opposite the external face 43 of the stator body 41.
- the inner 17 and outer 43 faces as well as the first 14 and second 15 clamping bearings define an annular chamber of cooling 21: the inner 17 and outer 43 faces radially delimit the annular cooling chamber 21 and the first 14 and second 15 clamping bearings delimit it longitudinally.

This separation wall 1 17 is here a portion of a cylinder formed from the material. with the crankcase body 1 1. It involves a fluidic communication orifice 1 18 between the annular cooling chamber 21 and the recovery tank 16.
- the stator body 41 of the rotary electrical machine 1 comprises a longitudinal stack of stator sheets 410 mounted tight not only between the first 14 and second 15 clamping bearings, but also in the annular cooling chamber 21 against the internal face 17 as we will now describe.
- the stator sheet 410 comprises an annular core 433 having a radially internal circumference 431 which, when mounting the rotary electrical machine 1 according to the invention, surrounds the rotor 50 coaxially, and a radially outer circumference 430 which, when mounting the rotary electrical machine 1 according to the invention, partly defines the outer face 43 of the stator body 41.
- the stator sheet 410 comprises, here, two radially centrifugal protuberances 432 projecting from the outer circumference 430 of the annular core 433. Each of the protuberances 432 have a radially outer face forming a top 435 of the growth

- stator sheet 410 thus produced has a central symmetry of center a geometric center C of the annular core 433.
- the annular core 433 has through orifices distributed over a circumference. These through orifices, once the stack has been produced, will define notches for receiving the strands of the winding of the stator 40.
- the stator sheets 410 are stacked so that two adjacent stator sheets 410a and 410b ( Figures 2, 3, 5, 6) are angularly offset with respect to each other so that their respective protuberances do not extend facing each other.
- the angular offset is of the order of 90 °.
- the second face 437 of the protuberance 432 of the stator plate 410a is parallel and aligned with the first face 436 of the protuberance 432 of the plate of stator 410b adjacent to the stator sheet 410a. It is the same for the first face 436 of the protuberance 432 of the stator plate 410a which is parallel and aligned with the second face 437 of the protuberance 432 of the stator plate 410b adjacent to the stator plate 410a.

Between two adjacent angular extents, a flat being formed by the succession of the first 436 and second 437 faces of the protuberances 432 during stacking, each channel 210 of an angular extent is in fluid communication with the channels 210 of the angular extent adjacent. This allows a distribution of the cooling fluid in the annular cooling chamber 21.
- the cooling fluid is introduced into the annular cooling chamber 21 via the orifices 20 of the means coolant supply.
- the cooling fluid is injected under pressure so as to optimally occupy a volume of the annular cooling chamber 21: thus the cooling fluid flows over the entire external face 43 of the stator body 41, in particular along all of the circumferential channels 210 to end up flowing into the recovery tank 16 via the orifice 1 18 and to be extracted from the annular cooling chamber via the outlet orifice 30.
- the rotary electrical machine 1 allows cooling of the stator body 41, and therefore of the stator 40, by direct contact of the cooling fluid on one face, the outer face 43 here, of said stator body. This makes it possible to have contact over an entire circumference of the stator body 41 so as to have a capture of the calories to be removed optimally over this entire circumference. This capture is all the more effective when the stator body 41 is a longitudinal stack of stator sheets 410 because the cooling fluid is in contact with the elements of the stack by the edge (outer circumference 430, first 436 and second 437 faces of the protuberances 432), these elements having better thermal conductivity in the radial direction than in a longitudinal direction.
- the rotary electric machine 1 according to the invention which has just been described can be a synchronous or asynchronous machine. It is in particular a machine for traction or propulsion of electric motor vehicles (Battery Electric Vehicle) and / or hybrids (Hybrid Electric Vehicle - Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle), such as individual cars, vans, trucks, buses, coaches.
- the rotating electric machine 1 according to the invention can be implemented in industrial and / or energy production applications, such as wind turbines, boats, submarines.
