A rotor includes a rotor core having a plurality of pairs of magnet-receiving holes and a plurality of magnets respectively received in the magnet-receiving holes. Each pair of the magnet-receiving holes is arranged in a substantially V-shape that opens toward a stator side. The rotor core has, for each of the magnet-receiving holes, a magnetic flux barrier that is formed, at a magnetic pole centerline-side end of a stator-side wall surface of the magnet-receiving hole, so as to protrude from the stator-side wall surface toward the stator side. The protruding height H of the magnetic flux barrier from the stator-side wall surface is set to be in the following range: 0.12×R≦̸H≦̸0.29×R, where R is the minimum distance from an intersection P1, which is between the magnetic pole centerline and a rotor-side circumferential surface of the stator, to the stator-side wall surface of the magnet receiving hole. |
