Torque ripple, vibrations, and acoustic noise in switched reluctance motors

The paper presents a state of the art review on the subject of torque ripple, vibrations, and acoustic noise in Switched Reluctance Motors (SRM). The approach of the multi-phase operation of SRM is also reviewed. Moreover, further directions of research on these subjects are introduced.

Direct Torque Control of Switched Reluctance Motor Drives

The Design of Switched Reluctance Motor Torque Optimization Controller

Switched reluctance motor drive system has greatly practical value in electric vehicle applications. For the characteristics of switched reluctance motor and electric vehicle application requirements, how to reduce the torque ripple effectively and ensure its average output torque, all these become a hot spot of research. Based on this, first of all, the nonlinear model of switched reluctance m...

A New Doubly Segmented Structure for Switched Reluctance Motors with High Torque Capability

In this paper, a new magnetic structure for switched reluctance motors is presented. In this structure, both stator and rotor has a segmented topology and there is no magnetic flux path between two stator/rotor segments or any possible combination of them. The proposed segmental structure may be considered with different number of phases as well as different number of segments per phase for any...

Adaptive torque-ripple minimization in switched reluctance motors

This paper addresses torque-ripple reduction in current-fed switched reluctance motors (SRMs). Ripple-free torque production in SRMs requires an accurate model that is often too complex for practical implementation. The algorithm proposed here combines the use of a simplified model with adaptation. Explicitly, it includes dynamic estimation of low harmonics of the combined unknown load torque a...
