The first part of paper describes step by step installation of Switched Reluctance Motor & its drive. A special procedure for installation (Mechanical as well as Electrical) is developed in 1 / 4

This paper presents analysis and comparative study of a novel high-torque three-phase switched reluctance motor (SRM) with magnetically isolated stator segments. In the proposed SRM, each segment has a concentric winding located on the center body of it and two diametrically opposite windings which form the motor phase. There are four salient poles in the stator segment. Two of them share their...

This article proposes a novel topology optimization method using the Gabor filter, which is widely used in field of image processing. The proposed applied to synchronous reluctance motor; its average torque maximized, and simultaneously, ripple minimized. It shown that results motor with thin layer-shaped flux barriers, achieves better performance comparison conventional model optimized normali...

Abstract – A novel passive boost power converter forsingle-phaseswitched reluctance motor is presented. A simple passive circuit is proposed comprisingthree diodes and one capacitor. The passive circuitis added in the front-end of a conventional asymmetric converter to obtain high negative bias. Based on this passive network, the terminal voltage of the converter side is a general DC-link volta...

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...

In this paper, the modeling and control of reluctance-force-based magnetic suspension in cylindrical rotor, ring-shape air gap, bearingless motors are presented. The full suspension system dynamics, including both the destabilizing force due to the motor field and the active magnetic suspension control forces, are modeled, and a transfer function of the bearingless motor suspension plant is der...

Firmware version 4.8 allows Simotics synchronous reluctance motors to also be operated with Sinamics S120 converters, enabling them to benefit from the complex functionalities of the modular S120 product portfolio. The new Sinamics reluctance control license used in combination with the Sinamics Booksize Modules means that precise drive control down to a complete standstill is now possible with...

Article history: Received: 5.1.2016. Received in revised form: 15.3.2016. Accepted: 15.3.2016. With finite element method (FEM) using ANSYS finite element (FE) package, an electromagneticstructural simulation model is introduced for the switched reluctance motor (SRM). Since the main reason of noise and vibration in the SRM is a radial force applied to stator poles, the 2D FE transient analysis...

In the present study, position estimation of switched reluctance motor (SRM) has been achieved on the basis of the artificial neural networks (ANNs). The ANNs can estimate the rotor position without using an extra rotor position sensor by measuring the phase flux linkages and phase currents. Flux linkage-phase current-rotor position data set and supervised backpropagation learning algorithm are...

In this paper a sliding-mode torque and flux control is designed for encoderless synchronous reluctance motor drive. The sliding-mode plus PI controllers are designed in the stator-flux field oriented reference frame which is able to track the mentioned reference signals with a minimum pulsations in the state condition. In addition, with these controllers a fast dynamic response is also achieve...
