A reverse flow cooled dynamoelectric machine is provided with an annular baffle disposed in the gap thereof and spaced from stator core laminations at the end region for improving the cooling of these laminations. The baffle prevents heated gas flow from the end turn region of the rotor and gas from the cooling passages in the stator assembly from impinging in the gap.

A reverse flow cooled dynamoelectric machine recited in claim 1 or 2, wherein said baffle means includes attachment means for attaching said baffle means to the inner circumference of the stator core. 5. The reverse flow cooled dynamoelectric machine recited in claim 4, wherein the end portions of said stator core includes radially foreshortened laminations having inboard ends progressively farther removed from the axis of said rotor. 6. The reverse flow cooled dynamoelectric machine recited in claim 4, wherein the circumferential widths as axially spaced ones of said attachment means are different. 7. A reverse flow cooled dynamoelectric machine comprising: a gas-tight casing containing cooling gas; a stator disposed within said casing and including a core of stacked laminations having axially spaced radially extending cooling passages disposed therein, the end regions of said core including radially foreshortened laminations with radially inner ends progressively farther removed from the axis thereof to provide an array of progressively stepped laminations; a rotor disposed within said stator and spaced therefrom by a gas gap, said rotor including end turn regions and a gas passage disposed therein to cool said end turn regions of said rotor; cooling means disposed in said casing; fan means mounted on said rotor for the circulation of said cooling gas and including means for the reverse flow circulation of said cooling gas; and baffle means disposed between said cooling passages of at least one end turn region of said stator and said gas passage of said at least one end turn region of said rotor, said baffle means disposed in said gap and spaced from said stepped laminations for forming a ventilation section directing a flow of said cooling gas flowing axially outwardly from said gas gap towards said end regions and across said stepped laminations, said baffle including an annular member, whereby a flow of cooling gas flowing from said cooling means through said gas passage of said rotor is prevented from colliding with a flow of cooling gas flowing from the radially extending cooling passages of said core, the size of said ventilation section gradually increasing toward the axial ends of said machine.
