Rotor Shape Optimisation of a Switched Reluctance Motor

  • Chapter
Book cover Intelligent Computer Techniques in Applied Electromagnetics

Part of the book series: Studies in Computational Intelligence ((SCI,volume 119))

Abstract

In the paper the method of torque pulsations reduction of a switched reluctance motor by means of rotor shape optimization is presented. The optimization procedure is constructed on a basis of a genetic algorithm. The objective function is evaluated using variations of the electromagnetic torque predicted by two-dimensional magnetostatic field analysis. To account for torque pulsations due to current switching a circuit model is used that utilizes the electromagnetic quantities predicted by the finite element analysis. To reduce the time of computations an environment for distributed computing was developed.
