Conference Proceeding
Mahmoud, H., Degano, M., Bacco, G., Bianchi, N., & Gerada, C. (2018). Synchronous Reluctance Motor Iron Losses: Analytical Model and Optimization. In 2018 IEEE Energy Conversion Congress and Exposition (ECCE) (1640-1647). https://doi.org/10.1109/ECCE.2018.8558292

The complex rotor structure of synchronous reluctance machines causes a high harmonic content in the air-gap flux density and then flux density fluctuations in different iron parts. The importance of determining accurately the total iron losses in th... Read More about Synchronous Reluctance Motor Iron Losses: Analytical Model and Optimization.

Synchronous reluctance machine has high flux density fluctuations in the iron due to the high harmonics results from the rotor anisotropy. Thus, an accurate computation of the iron losses is of paramount importance, especially during the design stage...
