Abstract

Switched reluctance motor (SRM) is a motor with many outstanding advantages, with simple structure, low manufacturing cost because the rotor has no winding and permanent magnets. Therefore, SRM is increasingly widely used in industries, especially with the trend of saving energy and the strong development of vehicles with electric motors as today. The article proposes a solution to improve the torque of reluctance motors by examining the influence of the motor's magnetic poles or combining it with the magnetic circuit optimization method; Applying MATLAB simulink and Ansys maxwell software to evaluate the results.
