Comparative Study of PMSM and SRM Capabilities

Abstract

International audienceThis paper is a synthesis of various research work performed on innovative structures for electrical machines (EM) responding to new performance requirements and applications. A presentation of the various statistical applications of EM will be made with various criteria. It will establish an initial comparison between the possibilities of both types of machines, namely the permanent magnet synchronous machine (PMSM) and switched reluctance machine (SRM), since more competing by conventional machines such as induction machines. It will be completed by a performance comparison study using a torque density criterion. Finally, an analytical-numerical method for PMSM and SRM structures design will be proposed
