Abstract
The interest in high efficiency drives leads to basic question in the design phase of an electrical drive. Permanent magnet motors are generally more efficient than induction motors because of their inherent excitation. Taking a pure technical view only the difficulties to reduce the flux in the idling state or in the flux weakening region are drawbacks which could be decisive towards the choice of an induction motor when efficiency is the major requirement.
