Synchronous reluctance motors (synRMs) are becoming increasingly prominent in electronic devices and electric vehicles (EVs) due to their efficiency, robustness, and cost-effectiveness. This blog will explore the fundamentals of synRMs, the materials and techniques used in their construction, and methods for evaluating their performance.
Synchronous Reluctance motors are not inherently self-starting like Induction motors. However, with the addition of aluminium bars, they can be designed as Line Start Synchronous motors (LS-SynRM).
To ensure the performance and reliability of synchronous reluctance motors, several testing methods are employed:
Standardized testing procedures are crucial for ensuring that synchronous reluctance motors meet industry benchmarks and safety standards. They provide a consistent basis for comparing different motor designs and performances, ensuring reliability and quality across various applications.
