Effect of Space Harmonics on the Transient and Steady-State Behavior of a Line-Start Synchronous Reluctance Motor
Résumé
This paper deals with the inclusion of space harmonics in the self- and mutual inductances expressions of a line-start Synchronous Reluctance Motor (SynRM) and their effects on its dynamic and steady-state performances. The stator and rotor inductances calculation is done by using the Winding Function Approach (WFA). Fourier series expansions of stator and rotor winding functions and of inverse air-gap function are developed. Experimental and simulation results are presented and a good agreement between them is obtained.
