The torque was increased by 40% and the radial force was decreased by 76% compared with the same size VR type SRM. Increasing the average torque, however, caused increasing torque ripple. In this paper we propose a 4-phase segment type switched reluctance motor and show that the torque ripple can be decreased by controlling the excitation current., 15th International Conference on Electrical Machines and Systems, ICEMS 2012; Sapporo; Japan; 21 October 2012 ~ 24 October 2012, Electrical Machines and Systems (ICEMS), 2012 15th International Conference on, Article number 6402009; 2012}, publisher = {Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.}, title = {A characteristic experiment of 4-phase segment type switched reluctance motor}, year = {2012} }
