This chapter outlines the development of an experimental platform for analyzing switched reluctance machines (SRMs), covering both motor and generator operations. The system integrates a three-phase induction machine as an electromagnetic brake or mechanical torque source, rotor position measurements through an absolute encoder, and power control through converters. Mathematical and computational modeling is emphasized, with the derivation of continuous inductance surfaces using parametric regression and hybrid optimization, enabling more precise simulations aligned with experimental data. Components such as AC-DC converters, Hall-effect sensors, and controllers are incorporated to study dynamic behavior, efficiency, and response to load variations. Experimental tests, including locked-rotor analysis, are presented to calculate inductances under various conditions. This approach facilitates the development of parametric models applicable to SRM control and optimization studies, ensuring greater fidelity to real systems and improved efficiency in practical applications.
