Abstract :
The present paper deals with the study of a rotor current excited vernier reluctance machine. First, we introduce the structure and the conditions on teeth, as well as the polarity numbers necessary for the smooth running of such a structure. We then describe a simple method used to design a prototype. Finally, using 2D FEM, we study a prototype. Different results are presented and discussed.
