We propose a 6-phase 12/10 switched reluctance motor (SRM) with a hex connection. The transformation between star and hex connections is not equivalent as that between star and delta connections of conventional 3-phase motor. In this paper, the transformation between star and hex connections is theoretically described. In addition, the current condition that maximizes torque is described. Finally, the torque of both connections is compared in terms of the AC-DC current ratio.
