The article presents the features of traction switched reluctance motors with a diametric closure magnetic flux and “short field”. A computer simulation motor short field is performed for ideal location rotor inside stator, as well two cases displacement. hodographs radial interaction forces stator are calculated.

Switched Reluctance Motors (SRMs) are increasingly popular machines in electrical drives, whose performances are directly related to their operating conditions. Their dynamic characteristics vary as conditions change. Recently, several methods of the modeling of the magnetic saturation of SRMs have been proposed as analytical functions. However, the SRM system is nonlinear and cannot be adequat...

In industrial automation and robotic applications, direct-drive motors represent a suitable solution to friction and backlash problems typical of mechanical reduction gears. Variable reluctance (VR) motors are well suited for direct-drive implementation but, because of the strongly nonlinear electromechanical characteristics, these motors are traditionally designed as stepper motors. The main a...

This paper presents the design of a new axial-flux switched-reluctance motor (AFSRM) topology for in-wheel drive vehicle applications. The features of the topology include a short flux path and an outer-rotor configuration. The proposed topology also uses a sintered-lamellar soft magnetic composite core material, and permits displacement of the rotor along the suspension axis, which reduces dam...

Abstract— The Switched Reluctance Motor (SRM) drive has evolved as an alternative to conventional motors in variable speed drives because of advantages like simple and rugged structure, absence of rotor winding, adaptability to harsh environments and high speed operation. This paper presents the speed control of Asymmetrical converter fed 4 phase 8/6 Switched Reluctance Motor drive using PWM co...
