Abstract
This paper presents an optimal design and comparative analysis for a toroidally wound reluctance rotor synchronous machine with either PM or DC excitation in the stator. The prototype of the PM version is experimentally evaluated, and its results are used to validate the model of the DC version as they share the same topology. The stator DC-excited synchronous (SDCES) motor is optimized at different outer diameters using large-scale multi-objective differential evolution (DE) and comparatively analyzed at power ratings typical for electric traction and propulsion applications. Its performance at reduced temperatures shows increased efficiency and goodness due to reduced losses, and its ability to employ modularity ensures high-reliability and fault-tolerant operation, which is critical for electric propulsion and traction applications.
