Permanent Magnetic Synchronous Motors
What Are Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors? The permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSM) are similar to the traditional AC synchronous motors, but the field, in this case, is excited by permanent magnets that create sinusoidal back EMF. They are similar to typical rotating electric motors that consist of a rotor and a stator. However, permanent magnet
