Abstract
A synchronous electric machine having a fixed stator, a multi-phase stator winding and having a rotor which has poles, excited in a predefined sequence, over its circumference, the number of poles being changeable as a function of the intensity and the direction of a field current in at least one field coil of the rotor. For improving the efficiency of the machine and for reducing the number of field coils and the entire coil cross section it is provided that the rotor has a laminated core, laminated in the axial direction, which has grooves on the circumference for accommodating the at least one field coil and that the at least one field coil is situated on the circumference of the rotor with a step size which corresponds to the pole pitch of the lower number of poles.
