Creating an Inner or Outer Core for a Variable Reluctance Stepper Motor

You can set the value of DiaYoke and DiaGap as DiaYoke < DiaGap to create inner cores or DiaGap < DiaYoke for outer cores.

Keeping GapCore = 0 and InfoCore = 0, outer stator cores of a variable reluctance stepper motor with different EmbraceShoe are created, as shown in the figures below.

EmbraceShoe = 0.7 (Automatically adjust to 0.72)

EmbraceShoe = 0.9 (Automatically adjust to 0.8)

A 3D inner rotor core with 50 poles, which is the same number as the stator indexing teeth, is shown below:
