A doubly-salient permanent-magnet machine includes an annular rotor (102) interposed between a pair of laterally disposed stators (100, 104). The rotor (102) includes a plurality of permanent magnets (106) alternating with electromagnetically-salient poles (108) made of steel. Each stator (100, 104) has a plurality of equally-spaced longitudinally-oriented poles (110, 112) and supports a plurality of copper coils (126, 128) connected in series. The two pluralities of copper coils comprise a phase-A winding and a phase-B winding.
