This paper reports a variable flux PM motor based on a new principle of self-excitation utilizing space harmonics that are inevitably generated in concentrated winding structures. In addition, it has a passive variable flux function. Its rotor is composed of consequent poles for each N- and S-pole pair and self-excited wound-field poles. The effects of the passive variable flux function on the driving performance and its efficiency map are demonstrated via the prototype.
