Abstract
A synchronous reluctance machine that has a stator and a rotor shaft operationally disposed within the confines of the stator. Laminations are axially stacked to form boat shaped segments. A plurality of selected boat shaped segments form a selected number of rotor poles about the rotor shaft and a plurality of support bars disposed intermittently between the boat shaped segments. Each segment of lamination is boat shaped with angular acuity facing towards the stator.
