A rotor of an electrical rotating machine includes a first rotor core, a second rotor core which overlaps the first rotor core in an axial direction, a non-magnetic substance layer which is interposed between the rotor cores, and a plurality of permanent magnet portions which are embedded in each rotor core. Each of the rotor cores includes a plurality of flux barrier portions and a plurality of effectual magnetic flux portions which are alternately arranged on an outer circumferential surface thereof. The flux barrier portion of the first rotor core overlaps both of a portion of the flux barrier portion of the second rotor core and a portion of the effectual magnetic flux portion of the second rotor core in the axial direction such that, in the adjacent rotor cores, the effectual magnetic flux portions do not overlap each other in the axial direction.
