Abstract

Wind generators have significant advantages in terms of green house effect and air pollution, compared to other electrical energy resources. Permanent magnet synchronous machines and induction machines are widely used for wind energy applications. Switched Reluctance Machine (SRM) is commonly used in motoring applications. But implementation of this machine in wind energy applications is considered in recent years. In this paper, a new electrical machine, Induction Switched Reluctance Machine (ISRM), is introduced for wind application. This electrical machine has short flux path in a non-segmental rotor. A 2-D finite element model of ISRM is constructed and solved and the flux path and torque profile of the machine are presented.
