  • Publication number: 20140009186
    Abstract: A method of determining the magnetization level of permanent magnets of an electric machine, whereby a probe winding is placed in an electric machine having a stator with a plurality of stator winding, and a rotor with a plurality of permanent magnets; the probe winding is fixed with respect to the stator and links a magnetic flux produced by the permanent magnets; the rotor is rotated at an angular speed; an induced electric quantity is determined at terminals of the probe winding in response to passage of the permanent magnets; and the magnetization level of the permanent magnets is determined on the basis of the induced electric quantity detected.
