Original Abstract Submitted
a rotor of a rotating electric machine includes a rotor core equipped with a cooling passage, a first retaining member disposed on one end side of the rotor core, and a second retaining member disposed on another end side of the rotor core. an inlet-side through hole of the first retaining member is inclined with respect to an axis of the rotor. an outlet-side through hole of the second retaining member is inclined with respect to the axis of the rotor. when the rotor is rotated, a cooling gas is introduced into the cooling passage through the inlet-side through hole, and the gas is discharged from the cooling passage through an outlet-side through hole.
