Abstract :
In many cases a rivalry between numerical and analytical methods for designing electrical machines and actuators can be found, both claiming to be the best choice. This paper is intended to give hints towards an optimum design method. The advantages and drawbacks of both numerical as well as analytical methods are outlined. As an example with considerable three-dimensional effects, the design of a single-phase actuator with a reluctance rotor is investigated
