Abstract :
The synchronous reluctance machine (SynRM) is studied. A brief comparison of the SynRM and its correspondent induction machine based on their physical nature as well as measurements from efficiency point of view is presented. The finite element method is used to investigate the most important geometrical parameters effect on the SynRM performance by studying the simplest rotor structure with just one flux barrier. The SynRM overload capacity is shown as well.
