Les enroulements de stator comprennent : des parties opposées d'aimant (83) faisant face à des parties d'aimant (42) du rotor dans la direction radiale de l'arbre rotatif de la machine électrique tournante ; et des parties de spire (84) qui connectent les parties opposées d'aimant ayant la même phase l'une à l'autre à l'extérieur des parties opposées d'aimant dans la direction axiale de l'arbre rotatif. Au moins l'une des parties de spire disposées des deux côtés dans la direction axiale sert de parties de spire d'accélération de dissipation de chaleur (841). Les parties de spire d'accélération de dissipation de chaleur sont disposées de telle sorte que les parties de spire d'accélération de dissipation de chaleur ayant différentes phases sont partiellement chevauchées l'une par rapport à l'autre dans la direction axiale et font saillie dans la direction radiale par rapport aux parties opposées d'aimant. Les parties de spire d'accélération de dissipation de chaleur ayant différentes phases, qui sont chevauchées dans la direction axiale, sont pourvues : de la partie de spire de couche la plus interne (841U) disposée à la position la plus proche du noyau de stator dans la direction axiale ; et des parties de spire de couche externe (841V, 841W) disposées à des positions plus éloignées du noyau de stator que la partie de spire de couche la plus interne dans la direction axiale. La quantité de projection de la partie de spire de couche la plus interne dans la direction radiale est différente des quantités de projection des parties de spire de couche externe dans la direction radiale.
