Claim Text:
1. A method of making a motor housing assembly, the method comprising: attaching a stator to a motor housing to form the motor assembly and to provide a fillable gap defined by an exterior surface of the stator and an interior surface of the motor housing; wherein the motor housing defines at least one port in communication with the fillable gap; wherein the at least one port is configured to receive a check fitting; fitting the check fitting to the at least one port; dispensing a flowable polymeric material into the fillable gap by injecting the flowable polymeric material into the fillable gap through the check fitting and through the at least one port such that the flowable polymeric material is in contact with the exterior surface of the stator and the interior surface of the motor housing adjacent the exterior surface of the stator; and curing the flowable polymeric material to form a polymeric layer having a thermal conductivity greater than the thermal conductivity of air.
