Abstract
The aim of this paper is to investigate and compare the performances of two induction motors and two transverse laminated synchronous reluctance motors (induction motor nameplate data: 2.2 and 4 kW, 380 V, 50 Hz, 4 pole). Each induction motor is compared with a synchronous reluctance motor, that has the same stator lamination and winding, but, obviously, different rotor. The analysis has been based both on an analytical and experimental approach. The results have shown that the synchronous reluctance motor, compared to the induction motor, is capable of around a 10% to 15% larger rated torque for a given frame size. The direct comparison of the performances of the motor types has been made both for constant load and constant dissipated power conditions.
