Research on switched reluctance double-rotor motor used for hybrid electric vehicle

In this paper, switched reluctance machine based double-rotor machine (SRDRM) is proposed. It is a kind of new structure electric machine with two electrical ports and two mechanical ports. Firstly, this paper presents the working principle of SRDRM, builds an equivalent magnetic-network model based on its magnetic structure, and establishes the theoretical analysis and computation fundamental. Secondly, a 2-D finite-element model (FEM) of SRDRM is built and the influence of the magnetic coupling between the outer motor and inner motor is analyzed.
