Disclosed is an SR (switched reluctance) generator with improved
generation capability in a low-speed range. The SR generator is
configured such that an inductance of a phase winding wound around a
stator is increased in a low-speed range and is reduced in a high-speed
range. Accordingly, a variation rate of the inductance relative to a
phase angle is increased in a low-speed range, resulting in an increased
output energy in a low-speed range and an improved generation efficiency.
The phase winding of the stator may be configured to have a single phase.
Accordingly, since the generator is configured with the reduced number of
switches, it can be manufactured inexpensively and simply.
