# System having a bearing cooling capabilities

## Abstract

There is provided a system having a bearing cooling capabilities, that includes a shaft, a vertical electrical motor that is configured to rotate the shaft, a housing including a first housing portion that surrounds the motor bearing, a motor bearing that includes a stationary outer ring and a rotating inner ring that is mechanically coupled to the shaft, an external heat dissipation element that is positioned outside the first housing portion, and heat pipes that are positioned between the stationary outer ring and the external heat dissipation element, wherein each heat pipe comprises an evaporator portion that is thermally coupled to the stationary outer ring and a condenser portion that is thermally coupled to the external heat dissipation element.
