I. Introduction
Performance of switched reluctance motors (SRMs) depends on specifications such as aspect ratio of stator and rotor poles, pole numbers, pole arcs, and stator windings. In addition, the SRM output power is extracted from the relation between specific electric and magnetic loading [1]. The output power and efficiency of SRMs are not quite comparable with the similar-sized permanent magnet (PM) motors [2]. Therefore, improving the performance of SRMs such that they become a viable alternative to PM motor has been an active area of investigation [3]. Moreover, in recent years, efforts have been made to improve the material and modify the construction of SRMs in order to make them more efficient [4].
