  abstract     = {Similar to standard three phase direct on line induction motors are three phase line-start permanent-magnet machines (LSPMMs) susceptible to grid voltage distortion. Although straight forward adaptation of harmonic loss mechanisms for standard squirrel-cage induction motors to LSPMMs seems appropriate, this study will indicate that harmonic loss calculations of induction machines are unsuitable to give accurate or even reasonable estimations of the influence of supply voltage distortion on the energy efficiency of LSPMMs. This research will specifically address the interaction of rotor-induced harmonic currents. Finite-element modeling is used in order to address the effect of supply voltage distortion on the segregated losses of an LSPMM. Finite-element modeling (FEM) allocates the majority of the harmonic loss to the rotor and shows shifting the relative phase angle between identical magnitudes of superimposed supply distortion of fifth and seventh order can result in a 30% reduction of rotor loss and 0.5 percentage points in overall energy efficiency. The results obtained by FEM are validated by practical measurements.},
