Commonly used terms in the Electrical industry.
reluctance torque
the type of torque a reluctance machine's operation is based upon.
A reluctance torque is produced in a magnetic material in the presence of an external magnetic field, which makes it to line up with the external magnetic field. An induced field due to fringing flux develops a torque that eventually twists the magnetic material around to align itself with the external field.
