Résumé : This paper presents a multiphysics modeling of a switched reluctance motor (SRM) to simulate the acoustic ra-diation of the electrical machine. The proposed method uses a 2-D finite-element model of the motor to simulate its magnetic properties and a multiphysics mechatronic model of the motor and controls to simulate operating conditions. Magnetic forces on the stator are calculated using finite-element analysis and are used as the excitation on a forced response analysis that contains a finite-element model of the motor stator structure. Finally, sound power levels are calculated using the boundary element method. Simulation results of the model are shown and compared with experimental measurements for a four-phase 8/6 SRM.
