In recent years, the product life cycle has decreased and demands for new products have emerged due to competition, modern industrial needs and rapidly changing technology. This has necessitated changes in design, development and manufacturing processes to improve the quality and efficiency and to reduce the cost. Computer Aided Design (CAD) helps to meet this challenge both in the design evaluation and product design stages.
This thesis contains the development of an interactive software for the optimal design of a motor intended for variable speed applications. The use of finite element analysis methods is proposed as an indispensable part of the CAD system for electrical machine design. An illustration of the method is presented for the design of a switched reluctance motor. / Master of Science
