The Switched Reluctance Motor (SRM) processes great application potential in In-Wheel Motor (IWM) electric vehicles (EV). However the problem of vibration and noise is always a disadvantage of this kind of motor. By utilizing the analytical Fourier fitting method, a convenience method for modeling In-Wheel Switched Reluctance Motor (IW SRM) is proposed for EV applications. And the negative vibr...

This paper presents a position sensorless closed loop control of a switched reluctance linear motor. The aim of the proposed control is to damp the position of the studied motor. Indeed, the position oscillations can harm some applications requiring high position precision. Moreover, they can induce the linear switched reluctance motor to an erratic working. The proposed control solution is bas...

Steady-state dynamic simulation of a variable reluctance stepping motor is carried out by applying two different excitation voltages. First a single-step voltage is applied to the motor, and a sinusoidal voltage, as the first term of Fourier series of the single-step voltage, is then used as the input voltage of the motor. In both cases plots of machine torque, current and speed are presented. ...

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...

The combination of a 16 inch Pitot tube pump with a switched reluctance motor represents a significant development in the field of high-pressure pumping. A field proven Pitot tube pump design has been mechanically integrated with a high performance switched reluctance motor. The resulting system is approximately 40 percent of the size of the standard unit it replaces. The closecoupled pump elim...

A fuzzy-logic-based turn-off angle compensator for torque ripple reduction in a switched reluctance motor is proposed. The turn-off angle, as a complex function of motor speed and current, is automatically changed for a wide motor speed range to reduce torque ripple. Experimental results are presented that show ripple reduction when the turn-off angle compensator is used.

Fuzzy logic or fuzzy set theory is recently getting increasing emphasis in process control applications. This paper presents an application of fuzzy logic control (FLC) for switched reluctance motor (SRM) speed. The (FLC) technique finds its stronger justification in the utilization of a robust control law to model uncertainties. A fuzzy logic controller of the motor speed is then designed and ...
