Abstract:
This paper presents the design of a permanent magnet (PM) synchronous motor with the magnets laid flush in slots let into the rotor surface, called inset magnet rotor. The finite element field analysis coupled with the drive circuit equations are briefly discussed for obtaining the motor performance. Experimental results obtained are in good agreement with the finite element analysis.
