Abstract

A rotor of induction motor comprises a rotary shaft, a cylindrical rotor core fixedly secured on the rotary shaft, a conductive cover fixed on the outer circumferential surface of the rotor core, the conductive cover being formed of a composite material of magnetic material and electrically highly conductive material to have a circumferential permeability smaller than a radial permeability, and a magnetic skin made of a magnetic material and provided on the outer circumferential surface of the conductive cover, the magnetic skin having a circumferential permeability and an electrical conductivity which are set to be larger than the circumferential permeability and an electrical resistivity of the conductive cover, respectively, whereby a loss due to a spatial higher harmonics magnetic flux of higher order generated by a pulsating magnetic flux of slots in a stator of induction motor can be prevented.
