Design methods of transversally laminated synchronous reluctance machines

摘要

Transversally laminated synchronous reluctance machine (SynRM) are usually designed with multiple-layer flux barriers to achieve high electromagnetic performance. This paper summarizes three design methods to optimize the machine. Related implementation procedures are detailed. Besides, advantages and disadvantages of these methods are discussed. Based on these conventional techniques, a comprehensive optimization method is proposed, with which a prototype SynRM is designed. The performances of this prototype are discussed to verify the optimal design method.
