Harsh Conditions

Switched reluctance motor is widely used in industrial and commercial uses, especially in harsh conditions. In this paper, the power generation control strategy of switched reluctance generator are given and analyzed. Five control strategies are as follows: Angle Position Control, Current Chopping Control, PWM Control and Exciting Voltage Control, Full Conducted Current Chopping Control. The simplicity & compactness of switched reluctance motors suggests the possibility using on special environment such as wind power generation.

The Individual

Switched-reluctance motors appear to be ideal industrial prime movers capable of precision speed and position control. The efficiency can be higher than for a similar-sized induction motor and the electronics less complicated for precise speed control. While the switched-reluctance drive is common in some applications, it has not been widely accepted because of the large amount of torque ripple produced. The torque ripple from the widely used induction motor is quite low and it causes less vibration in the mechanical drive train following the motor. A four-phase switched-reluctance motor can he operated in such a way as to produce a constant zero-ripple torque output. The currents in at least two of the four phases are set so that the total torque produced is constant. By precisely setting the currents in three of the four phases, a constant torque output can be obtained at a constant d.c. supply current, and the switched-reluctance motor then has similar characteristics to a d.c. series motor. A mathematical description of these non-linear currents is derived along with the individual and mutual torque contributions to the total constant torque. The equations are also shown in graphical form.

Coil Winding

In this paper Switched reluctance motors are proposed for high temperature automotive applications due to the absence of magnets in comparison to conventional DC or brushless DC motors. The improvement in converter efficiency by the use of a current source converter in the front end simplifies the current control strategy that is otherwise required to be implemented in each phase coil winding. The analysis of the converter will be supported with simulation and the results for converter efficiency will be calculated. The proposed strategy will be suitable for implementation using a microcontroller based control mechanism for position control in an automotive application such as throttle control.
