Accurate Position Estimation in Switched Reluctance Motor With Prompt Starting

1.0 INTRODUCTION This paper presents a novel method of position estimation for Switched Reluctance (SR) Motor. The method is suitable from starting to full speed. It ensures smooth starting without initial hesitation. The method further incorporates a better position estimating algorithm incorporating corrections for excitation voltage and mutual inductance effects. The algorithm is better suit...

Direct Torque Control of Switched Reluctance Motor Drives

Direct torque control of 4 phase 8/6 switched reluctance motor drive for constant torque load

Abstract. The Switched Reluctance Motor (SRM) Drives have attracted the attention of many researchers in the recent past because of advantages like simple mechanical structure, adaptability to harsh environments like coal mining etc. But it has one main disadvantage of high torque ripple due to its double saliency structure. The Direct Torque Control (DTC) technique can minimize the torque ripp...

Switched Reluctance Motor

Switched Reluctance Motors (SRM) have inherent advantages such as simple structure with non winding construction in rotor side, fail safe because of its characteristic which has a high tolerances, robustness, low cost with no permanent magnet in the structure, and possible operation in high temperatures or in intense temperature variations. The torque production in switched reluctance motor com...
