Abstract
In this paper, a fast and accurate analytical method is proposed to analyze the loss and efficiency of switched reluctance machines (SRMs) under various operating conditions. The analyses are applied on a four-phase 16/12 SRM with high power density and wide speed range, which was designed for traction application. A direct method is proposed to calculate hysteresis and eddy current loss without empirical equations. The machine is discretized into a limited number of elements according to the magnetic flux density distribution using an analytical magnetic circuit method. Variable loss coefficients are used for each element to improve the accuracy. The developed method has been validated with simulation and experimental results.
