Abstract
Currently, the permanent magnet motors PMM represent an attractive solution in the electric traction field, thanks to their higher performances than other electric motors. In this context, this work represents an analytical study and validation by the finite element method of two configurations, the radial flux permanent magnet synchronous motors with exterior rotor PMSMER and with interior rotor PMSMIR. This paper is divided into two sections: In the first section, we represent the analytical study based on electromagnetic law of the two structures PMSMER and PMSMIR. In the second section, we represent a comparative study of the two structure performances.
