Abstract

Abstract Double Stator Switched Reluctance Machine (DSSRM) is a novel switched reluctance machine with limited information about its heat distribution and dissipation. This paper presents a two dimensional (2-D) thermal analysis of Double Stator Switched Reluctance Machine (DSSRM) to observe actual heat distribution in the parts of the machine, using Finite Element Method (FEM). Two topologies for the rotor of DSSRM are considered, Non-Squirrel Cage Double Stator Switched Reluctance Machine (NSC-DSSRM) and Squirrel Cage Double Stator Switched Reluctance Machine (SC-DSSRM). The heat distribution of these two topologies is analyzed, using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). Finally the results are presented and compared.
