Abstract
A switched reluctance machine comprising a housing, a stator attached to the housing and a rotor mounted within the housing. The stator including teeth wound with electrical coils which are connected to form phase windings. The rotor comprising a series of laminates including teeth pressed onto a shaft. According to the present invention, at least one set of opposing phase wound stator teeth comprise permanent magnets.
