The electrical drive systems utilized in Electric Vehicles (EVs) applications must be reliable and high performance. To providing these specifications, it is essential to design high-efficiency electric motors and develop high-performance controllers. This study introduces direct torque control of Switched Reluctance Motor (SRM) for electric vehicle applications using Model Predictive Control (MPC) technique. The direct torque control using MPC is proposed to maintain the motor torque and motor speed to tracking desired signals with a satisfactory response. In this study, the MPC algorithm was programmed in C- language, and the simulation tests were performed using a non-linear model of 6/4 - 60 kW SRM that is fed with the symmetrical converter. The proposed controller was tested under different load conditions to verify the robustness of the controller, as well as at variable speeds to investigate the tracking performance. Thanks to the proposed method, the SRM torque ripples, stator copper losses, and average switching frequency of the power converter can reduce effectively due to applying a cost function that combines multiple objectives. The obtained outcomes show the effectiveness of the suggested approach compared to conventional direct torque control techniques.

The 16/6/8 double-stator bearingless switched reluctance motor (DSBSRM) is used as the object of study in this paper. To solve the problem of torque and levitation force ripples in this motor, a control system direct force control (DFC) and direct instantaneous torque control (DITC) based on the torque sharing function (TSF) are proposed. With the strong nonlinearity and approximation capability of radial basis function neural networks, the torque and levitation force observer are designed. The observed torque and levitation forces are used as feedback for the internal loop control, which is combined with the external loop control to make a double closed-loop control. In order to further improve the output torque and system robustness and suppress the torque ripple in steady-state process, the motor winding method is optimized and a set of switching angles is added on the basis of TSF. The simulation results verify the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed control method. It effectively suppresses speed ripple and reduces torque and levitation force fluctuations and rotor radial displacement jitter.

This paper presents direct torque control of Switched Reluctance Motor (SRM) using Fuzzy Logic Control (FLC) for electric vehicles applications. The PD-FLC is proposed for SRM torque control, to keep the torque of the motor shaft in tracking the reference torque with high accuracy. With the help of FLC techniques, the SRM torque ripples can be reduced compared to traditional control techniques. In this study, the nonlinear 6/4 SRM model is simulated with the symmetrical converter, and the converter controller is programmed using C-language. The proposed method is tested at different load and variable speed conditions, and the obtained results confirm that the FLC direct torque control can be used for torque control to improve the motor performance and reduce the torque ripples compared to other techniques such as direct instantaneous torque control.
