Design and control of synchronous reluctances motors for electric traction vehicle

The paper present the analysis of the performances of an electrical machine used for electric traction in automotive application. The electrical machine under study in this paper is a flux synchronous reluctance machine (SynRM) with 4 poles and 27 slots. The study design requires some analytical analysis in SPEED program, followed by a numerical one in order to obtain the performances of the proposed machine. The control strategy of this machine was also presented.
