ABSTRACT:
A reluctance machine system is provided that comprises a reluctance machine having a stator defining a plurality of stator poles, a plurality of phase windings wound around the stator poles, and a rotor defining rotor poles and inter-pole gaps. Contoured topsticks, a dust cover and an endshields are used to reduce the amount of noise in the reluctance system. A winged terminal housing is also used to allow manipulation of the terminal housing and enhance alignment while protecting critical wires.
