Torque Improvement for Modified Double Stator Switched Reluctance Machines

This study advances the design of double stator switched reluctance machines (DSSRMs) by focusing on mitigating torque ripple to improve efficiency and promote broader application. The research undertakes a comprehensive literature review, establishes a baseline design, and employs iterative enhancements alongside advanced 2D and 3D model simulations using SolidWorks and ANSYS Maxwell software. Significant findings include a torque ripple reduction of up to 9%, an increase in peak torque, and optimised magnetic flux distribution, achieved through adjustments in rotor segment geometry and electromagnetic force balancing methods. The outcomes highlight the critical role of magnetic force analysis, 3D modelling, and dynamic testing in enhancing DSSRM performance, establishing a foundation for future optimisations in design and materials for environmental and operational sustainability.
