The influence of the rotor pole shape on the static and dynamic characteristics of the switched reluctance motor

This paper presents results of switched reluctance motor static and dynamic simulations by means of the finite difference method in integral form and the Moulton-Adams algorithm. Fluxes and torques have been calculated by the virtual work principle. The dynamic states of the motor are described by the nonlinear and nonstationary system of ordinary difference equations solved numerically. Some exemplary dynamic states are presented and discussed.
