This is a cheaper alternative to Regular Motors wherein Magnets and Windings are absent on the Rotor. We have to look at alternatives to each problem.
Advantages of Switched Reluctance Motor
- Simple Design and Robust Construction
- Torque Ripple solved with 8 Stator & 6 Rotor poles and 4 Phase Windings
- Rotor Windings and Permanent Magnets are not required
- Low Rotor Inertia
- Rotor Copper Losses are Absent
- Can withstand High Temperature Operation
