Patent attributes
A high rotor pole switched reluctance machine (HRSRM) employs an axial and radial mirroring concept and is represented by a first Multiple Rotor Pole (MRP) formula and second Multiple Stator Pole (MSP) formula. A multiple rotor HRSRM comprises at least two rotors each having a plurality of rotor poles and at least one stator having a plurality of stator poles. The at least two rotors and the at least one stator are positioned about a central axis with the stator placed between, and laterally adjacent to the rotors. A multiple stator HRSRM comprises at least two stators having a plurality of stator poles and at least one rotor having a plurality of rotor poles. The at least two stators and at least one rotor are positioned about a central axis with the rotor placed between and laterally adjacent to the stators.
