Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor are used in many applications that require rapid torque response and high – performance operation. New developed materials such as magnetic materials, conducting materials and insulating materials as well as several new applications have greatly contributed to the development of small and special purpose machines. Using such materials the size of the motor would considerably reduce and high performance motors can be built. Due to several new applications these motors are quite popular in a developing country such as India. The speed of a permanent magnet synchronous motor is varied by varying the frequency of an inverter. The performance of the motor is experimentally verified and the results are found to be encouraging. It is also observed that, under varying load condition, the speed of a motor remains constant at constant frequency.
