Abstract :
In this paper, a new design concept of a PM machine for flux weakening operation is proposed. The feasibility of strong flux weakening capability without permanently demagnetizing the permanent magnet is investigated. Results from the finite element analysis on the proposed PM machine structure are presented to verify the new design concept
