Analytical Model of Synchronous Reluctance Motors with Application to Industry
摘要
This research presents a novel approach to investage the influence of flux barriers inserted into rotor on the electromagnetic parameters of synchronous reluctance motors (SynRM). Initially, an analytical model is developed to defined the angle and parameters of flux barriers. A finite element method is then introduced to simulate and compute electromagnetic parameters such as air gap flux density, back electromotive force, d- and q- axial inductances, output torque, cogging torque, torque ripple and efficiency of the SynRM. The obtained results of the proposed methods will be shown that by using the flux barriers with suitable angles, the torque ripple and torque characteristic of the SynRM motor are improved.
