An aircraft propulsion plant including an electric motor having a rotor and a stator mechanically linked to a base which can be mounted at the rear of an aircraft fuselage, a fan rotated by the rotor, a set of fixed blades located downstream of the fan, and a nacelle comprising an outer casing and a fan casing surrounding the fan and the set of fixed blades. The nacelle is mechanically linked to the base through the set of fixed blades. This configuration enables a cooling circuit to be formed for enabling the heat produced by the electric motor at the location of the stator to be evacuated towards the fixed blades and the nacelle where it is dissipated. Furthermore, this heat may be used for the de-icing of the nacelle lip.

A rotating electrical machine is provided which is equipped with a rotor core and a magnet unit made up of a plurality of magnets. Each of the magnets is oriented to have an easy axis of magnetization which extends more parallel to a d-axis in a region closer to the d-axis than that in a region close to a q-axis does. The easy axis of magnetization defines a magnet-produced magnetic path. The rotor core includes d-axis protrusions through which magnetic flux passes along the d-axis and does not have q-axis protrusions through which magnetic flux passes along the q-axis. This causes a magnetic resistance in the region close to the d-axis to be lower than that in the region closer to the q-axis, thereby providing salient poles. This structure enables the rotating electrical machine to be reduced in size and have an enhanced efficiency in operation.
