How much lower than the ideal torqe curve is the actual torque of a PMSM running at overspeed?

VFD-controlled PMSM's are said to produce constant maximum torque up to the rated speed. Above the rated speed the VFD performs defluxing and produces constant power. This should then mean that at 200%...
