Abstract

The switched reluctance motor (SRM) is a doubly salient electrical machine carrying simple windings in which flow unidirectional currents over appropriate rotor positions [1]. Because of its simplicity, robustness, and high efficiency [2, 3], SRM is evaluated for variable speed- and traction drives. In this paper, a quadratic two-dimensional technique founded upon Lagrange curvilinear elements and coupling finite element method (FEM)- and boundary integral equation method (BIEM) is used to calculate electromagnetic parameters in a SRM. The application of this method to two SRM prototypes provides an accurate analysis of the magnetostatic field and gives good values of the electromagnetic parameters of a SRM
