Abstract :
This paper proposes the design of switched reluctance motor (SRM) to obtain high motor efficiency. The first step of design makes the principle improving motor efficiency clear. The cross sections and axial shapes of rotor and stator cores are designed by using the magnetic field analysis with 2D and 3D finite element methods. The designed SRM is produced experimentally, and is tested to certify the performance.
