The purpose of this paper is to present an efficient converter circuit used to drive switched reluctance motors. It uses the C-dump topology in which the trapped energy in the phase windings is returned to the supply capacitor to be used in the following strokes. In addition to the C-dump topology, it uses two extra feedbacks. One comes from a governor mounted on the shaft of motor which contro...

This paper presents an adaptive neuro-fuzzy controller (ANFC) for the switched reluctance motors (SRM). The proposed controller is used for speed control of this type of motors. The dynamic response of the SRM with the proposed controller is studied during the starting process and under different disturbances. The effectiveness of the proposed ANFC is then compared with that of the conventional...

Switched reluctance motors are appealing because they inexpensive in both construction and maintenance. The aim of this paper is to develop a commutation function that linearizes the nonlinear motor dynamics such way torque ripple reduced. To end, convex optimization problem posed directly penalizes between samples, as well power consumption, Gaussian Process regression used obtain continuous f...
