In this thesis we present a study of high frequency rotor power losses in permanent magnet synchronous machines. In case of time harmonic fields we have shown by an analysis and confirmed by 3D finite element calculation an anomaly of the segmentation rule of the magnet. Consequently, we have proposed algorithms of optimization of the magnet segmentation aiming the minimization of eddy current losses, with a simple criterion on influence of the skin effect in losses calculation in high frequency. In the second part of the theses we have analyzed the rotor power losses dues to the stator slot harmonics. In case of homogeneous field we have proposed an analytical formulation taking into account machine’s geometrical parameters. We have then tested this model with aid of the finite element calculation. The analytical model gives acceptable results in absence of the skin effect in long magnets, but its application in laminated steels hasn’t proved successful.
