Abstract:

Electric and hybrid electric vehicles are attractive candidates for sustainable transportation due to its higher efficiency and low emission. The critical choice on the electric motors is its capability of motoring and regenerative braking characteristics. Switched reluctance machines are viable candidate as with proper control and extended constant power range operation replacing the multi-gear transmission. Recently developed dual magnetic circuit reluctance machine configuration make it added advantage with its feasibility on the optimizing the magnetic flux flow. The dual magnetic circuit reluctance machines through double rotor is presented and compared with conventional machine for its power density. Further to evaluate the dynamic performance the proposed machine is compared with that of the conventional machine. It is found that the torque density of the proposed machine is 65% higher than that of the conventional machine and show promising candidate for the EV and HEV applications in the near future.

A New Skewed-Rotor-Pole Switched Reluctance Motor Design

This paper considers a new switched reluctance motor (SRM) structure aiming at high starting torque with low volume. For some applications such as EVs (Electrical Vehicles), the motor volume and starting torque is a critical point in its design. In many methods, reducing the motor volume causes reduction in starting torque and decreases the motor efficiency. Unlike conventional SRMs, the rotor ...

A Novel Switched Reluctance Motor with U-type Segmental Rotor Pairs: Design, Analysis and Simulation Results

This paper describes the design and modeling procedure of a novel 5-phase segment type switched reluctance motor (ST-SRM) under simultaneous two-phase (bipolar) excitation of windings. The rotor cores of ST-SRM are embedded in an aluminum block as well as to improve the performance characteristics. The magnetic circuit of the produced ST-SRM is constructed so that the magnetic flux paths are sh...

A New Switched Reluctance Motor Design to Reduce Torque Ripple using Finite Element Fuzzy Optimization

This paper presents a new design to reduce torque ripple in Switched Reluctance Motors (SRM). Although SRM possesses many advantages in terms of motor structure, it suffers from large torque ripple that causes problems such as vibration and acoustic noise. The paper describes new rotor and stator pole shapes with a non-uniform air gap profile to reduce torque ripple while retaining its average ...

Switched Reluctance Motor Controller Design Using Novel Cam Positioner

This paper presents the idea of manufacturing and fabricating a controller for four phase, 8/6 poles switched reluctance motor (SRM). The experimental results drawn from this controller are showing that the efficiency is a function of the applied voltage to the stator winding due to load variation, and found the best applied voltage that produced a better efficiency by this system is 85 VDC. Th...

Rotor Position of Switched Reluctance Motor Using Sensorless Method

Switched reluctance motor (SRM) is an energy converter that converts an electrical energy to mechanical energy in motoring operation and vice-versa in generating operation. When the rotor is out of alignment, the inductance is very low and the current also increase rapidly. The rotor is aligned with the stator then the inductance become very large. In the simulation results, how the rotor minim...
