The paper presents a new method for accurately calculating the torque and current of a variable-reluctance stepping motor from measured or computed flux-linkage/current/rotor position data. The new method is more accurate and uses less input data than previously known procedures, and is computationally efficient. It can be applied to both steady-state and transient problems.
