Synchronous Reluctance Machines (SynRMs) are facing a revamped industrial interest. A comparison between SynRMs and other types of electric machines allow listing the advantages and proving the choice of such machines. This paper presents a review of SynRMs, regarding particularly their thermal analysis. First of all, a description of the basic principles of SynRM is illustrated. The thermal analysis is based mainly on the study of the heat sources and the heat extraction mechanisms which are listed and described. Nevertheless, the coupling effects between the thermal field and the magnetic material parameters are discussed. Then, the three heat extraction phenomena (conduction, convection and radiation) are analyzed. Along the work, important facts about the thermal analysis are discussed. A comparison between the different approaches used for the thermal analysis is highlighted, and new developments and perspectives are identified.
