This study describes the direct torque control-DTC approach, based on Sliding Mode Control (SMC) technology with chattering reduction, for reducing ripple of Switched Reluctance Motor (SRM). The SRM control loop has been given SMC treatment to account low-frequency fluctuations in output. To maintain a consistent motor speed, sliding mode controller modifies value reference current. findings de...

The paper presents the results of studies abnormal conditions in a switched reluctance drive (SRD) due to failures control algorithms. It discusses one most common algorithms for these drives without use sensors, which is simple and easy configure. practical application this algorithm showed that various anomalous phenomena could occur it, expressed, example, sharp increase amplitude phase curr...

Because of extreme local saturation at pole tips of excited phase and uncircular shape of rotor and stator, a Swithed Reluctance Motor (SRM) does not have a simple and accurate mathematical model. Therefore, the output control of this motor requires a robust controller which is not based on an accurate model of the process. Fuzzy controllers, to some extent, will satisfy these requirements. Tet...

This paper presents the speed control of SRM which is directly fed from an AC supply through a simple R dump converter. The controller uses fuzzy logic control (FLC) for switched reluctance motor (SRM) speed. The FLC performs a PI-like control strategy, giving the current reference variation based on speed error and its change. The performance of the drive system was evaluated through digital s...

Since the magnetizing characteristics are highly non-linear in nature, the torque ripple is high in the Switched Reluctance Motor (SRM). The torque ripple can be minimized by using a novel control technique called Direct Torque Control (DTC). In DTC technique, torque is controlled directly through control of magnitude of the flux-linkage and change in speed of the stator flux vector. The flux a...

drives are designed to increase product performance and system efficiency. One such motor type which can benefit from digital control is the switched reluctance (SR) motor. The SR motor brings advantages in both cost and reliability over other types of adjustable speed drives. These include its simple mechanical construction, high efficiency and high power density. On the other hand, large torq...

Direct torque control (DTC) of Switched reluctance motor is known to have simple control structure with comparable performance to that of field oriented control techniques. However, the role of optimal selection of the voltage space vector is one of the weakest points in a conventional DTC drive. In this paper optimal selection of voltage space vectors is achieved using neuro fuzzy controller. ...
