Abstract

In this paper, the detailed comparative study of high torque density switched reluctance motor (SRM) used in the electric transport is provided. By means of sophisticated simulation packages Motor Solve and Magnet Solve. The delivered outputs of the study models of SRM that have 3KW rating of output power, 2700 RPM rates of speed,10A rated currents and a rated torque of 10 Nm. Torque density, efficiency, and power to weight ratio are essential performance parameters that are comprehensively explored in simulation approaches. The comparison between the SRM structural design is established on the basis of performance in the challenging transportation applications. Results of simulation analysis also provide by choosing motor architectures to use on electric mobility platforms where size, efficiency and thermal concerns are essential. This paper discusses engineering insights and presents a viable engineering decision making design and implementation of the proposed electric motor technology in next generation transportation systems via the power of precise simulation driven evaluation.

Keywords: Switched Reluctance Motor (SRM), Torque Ripple Reduction, Electric Transportation, Torque Density, Finite Element Analysis (FEA).
