Abstract

This paper presents the optimal design method of synchronous reluctance motor (SynRM) for the high torque and power factor. It is difficult to design optimal barrier shape of rotor by analytical method because of leakage flux between barriers and saturation in the core. Therefore, the optimal design of SynRM including rotor structure is proposed in this paper by using finite element method (FEM) and simulation design of experiment (DOE). Finally, the characteristics of optimal model are compared with those of the worst one
