Performance analysis of hysteresis-reluctance motors with segmental rotors

Abstract
The field solution of hysteresis-reluctance motors with segmental rotors is developed, using the method of series matching at the boundaries between the various regions of the system model. New parameters are derived that yield an equivalent circuit and machine-performance equations for this type of machine. Computed results are presented to illustrate the application of the theory, and to demonstrate the performance of the machine and the influence of its design features. Performance is compared with that of a circumferential flux hysteresis motor, by both calculation and a tested example.
