Abstract
A permanent magnet type rotating electric machine includes a stator, a rotor core including magnet insertion holes, and permanent magnets inserted into the magnet insertion holes and fixed to the rotor core. The permanent magnets include N-pole magnets and S-pole magnets. The N-pole magnets are arranged adjacent to each other in a circumferential direction and form a first set. The S-pole magnets are arranged adjacent to each other in the circumferential direction and form a second set. The first set and the second set are arranged along the same circumference. The rotor core includes an outer circumferential portion that includes a groove at a location corresponding to a position between the N-pole magnets and a groove at a location corresponding to a position between the S-pole magnets.
