Abstract

This paper presents the reasonable design parameters of a switched reluctance motor to drive a hybrid electric vehicle by using the equivalent magnetic circuit method. The designed motor can be redesigned by using finite element analysis as a variation of the parameter for the purpose of improving performance. This paper shows that a flat-topped current of a phase can be made from a change of the lamination stack length for high average torque and a lower torque ripple. The change of current falling time as a variation of turn-off angle was shown by finite element analysis. The core loss and copper loss were described. The torque of the redesigned motor is suitable for low and high speed ranges to drive a HEV. which is verified by the speed-torque curve.
