Abstract :
A study for the enhancement of effective flux of permanent magnet (PM) machines using flux guides is presented. An intrinsic demagnetization curve that considers the leakage flux is introduced. On the basis of a higher effective flux the stator winding can be more compact; consequently, a lighter stator and a higher efficiency PM machine can be obtained.
