Abstract :
Switched reluctance machines (SRMs) are leading candidates for propulsion applications. This paper presents a design in the context of application for a new class of SRM entitled DSRM (discrete switched reluctance machine). Unlike the conventional single stator/single rotor SRM, the DSRM is composed of several magnetically separated dual stator/single rotor reluctance machines. The mechanical structure/arrangement of the machine is ideal for in-wheel and other volumetrically limited spaces. This paper will detail the design and analysis of a 5-phase DSRM.
