Abstract: A reluctance type rotating machine includes a stator 1 having armature windings 2 arranged on an inner periphery of the stator 1, a rotor 3 having a magnetic unevenness in the circumferential direction and a plurality of permanent magnets 6 arranged for negating the armature windings' flux passing between adjoining poles. Each magnet 6 is magnetized in a direction different from a direction to facilitate the rotor's magnetization. A magnetic portion 7 is provided between the pole and the interpole of the rotor 3. Owing to the provision of the magnetic portion 7, when the armature windings are not excited, more than 30% of the permanent magnets' flux is distributed in the rotor 3. Similarly, when the machine is loaded, the permanent magnets' interlinkage flux is more than 10% of composite interlinkage flux composed of armature current and the permanent magnets.

Abstract: A rotor is provided for a permanent magnet type rotating machine having a stator 1 with armature windings 11. The rotor 3 includes a rotor core 31 and a plurality of permanent magnets 32 arranged in the rotor core 31 so as to negate magnetic flux of the armature windings 11 passing through interpoles 3b. The rotor 3 is constructed so that the average of magnetic flux in an air gap 2 between the rotor 3 and the stator 1, which is produced by the permanent magnets 32 at the armature windings' de-energized, ranges from 0.1 [T] to 0.7 [T] and the ratio (Lq/Ld) of self-inductance of the magnetic portion in a hard-magnetizing direction (q-axis) to self-inductance in an easy-magnetizing direction (d-axis) under a rated load condition ranges from 0.1 to 0.8. Under these conditions, it is possible to realize the rotating machine which operates as an induction machine at the machine's starting and also operates as an synchronous machine at the rated driving due to smooth pull-in.
