Abstract: Thanks to their many advantages, which enable them to be used in a wide range of fields and applications, Switched reluctance machines (SRMs) have recently come to dominate the field of variable speed electric drives. Compared with other families of actuators, Switched reluctance machines (SRMs) is distinguished by its simple robust construction, high reliability, absence of rare-earth magnets, fast dynamic response and cost-effectiveness. Given the importance of accurately predicting the electromagnetic performance of SRMs at the design stage It is with this in mind that our research work, developed in this paper, is situated. The first step is to define SRM categories and parameters. Next, finite element modelling is presented as a key technique for characterization. Finally, the paper examines rotary and linear variants of SRMs used in industries requiring motion-controlled solutions. The study focuses on design strategies for adapting Switched reluctance motors (SRMs) to the needs of different industrial sectors.
