SUMMARY In this paper, an analytical method using a mathematical model for switched reluctance motors (SR motors) is proposed. The feature of this method is the representation of the effect of the mutual flux on the integral model by applying transient analysis utilizing preprocessed inductance tables. The advantage of this method is that the analysis time is reduced in comparison with the finite element method (FEM). The calculation results for the torque show little difference between the FEM and the proposed method, and the computation time was shortened. A 3.7‐kW prototype axial‐gap SR motor designed using the proposed method delivered the specified performance.
