- Torque ripples and magnetic forces which depend on the spectrum of the induction in the air gap, are the main sources of electromagnetic noise5. This noise is manifested on the one hand by the torque ripples which interact with the transmission system and on the other hand by the magnetic forces which apply to the stator of the machine which can, depending on their amplitudes and their frequencies , excite the eigen modes of the machine, and therefore make it resonate.
- harmonics of magnetic forces and torque ripple which are at the source of these phenomena are due to the spatial harmonics of notches. These harmonics arise from the variation of the air gap permeance which depends on the notch opening and the discrete distribution of the magnetomotive force.
- the permeance spectrum is rich in harmonics, which increases the harmonic rate of the forces.
- magnetic; the stator yoke can then be more the subject of resonance problems since its rigidity is all the less if the notch opening is larger.

Such a configuration allows good optimization of the space available in and around the stator. We gain in particular in compactness at the level of the height of the buns. In addition, the risk of short circuits between electrical conductors can be reduced.

- the number of stator poles is 6.
- the number of notches / number of stator poles combination is 63/6.
- FIG. 4 shows in isolation a one-phase coil in the case of a three-phase fractional winding.

- the electrical conductors 22 are arranged in a row in the notches 21, in a row of aligned electrical conductors.
- the electrical conductors may have a generally rectangular cross section, in particular with rounded corners. They are in the example described superimposed radially in a single row.

Finally, there are U-shaped electrical conductors. An example of such a U-shaped electrical conductor is illustrated in Figures 7 and 8.
