  • Abstract
    The authors proposed a novel segment type reluctance generator (RG) and presented the experimental performance. It had similar induced voltage to the usual three phase synchronous generator, but the efficiency was low. This paper presents a novel segment type switched reluctance generator (SRG) to improve the efficiency and describes its FEM analysis for wind power generation. The performance is compared with the segment type RG.
