This paper presents a position sensorless control system of Switched Reluctance Motor (SRM) using neural network. The control of SRM depends on the commutation of the stator phases in synchronism with the rotor position. The position sensing requirement increases the overall cost and complexity. In this paper, the current-flux-rotor position lookup table based position sensorless operation of SRM is presented. Neural network is used to construct the current-flux-rotor position lookup table, and is trained by sufficient experimental data. Experimental results for a 1-hp SRM is presented for the verification of the proposed sensorless algorithm.

In automobile, the introduction of electronically commutated motors has been accompanied by a proliferation of electronic devices. With this proliferation of electronic devices, an emphasis has been placed on EMC issues. This paper is proposed to use SRM as a radiator cooling fan in automotive applications. To drive SRM, Energy efficient C-dump converter is applied. It is verified more efficient than other converters through simulation and experiments. And also SRM is valid automotive applications that have strict EMC standards. It is compared SRM with BLDC and DC motor by experiments.

This paper presents an implementation of position control system of Switched Reluctance Motor (SRM) using digital hysteresis controller. Although SRM possess several advantages including simple structure and high efficiency, the control drive system using power semiconductor device is required to drive this motor. The control drive system increases overall system cost. To overcome this problem and increase the application of SRM, it is needed to develope the servo drive system of SRM. So, the position control system of 1 Hp SRM is developed and evaluated by adaptive switching angle control. The position/speed response characteristics and voltage/current waveforms are presented to prove the capability of SRM for a servo drive application. Moreover, digital hysteresis current controller is developed and evaluated by experimental testing for the purpose of system developmental cost reduction.

This paper presents a new method of detecting rotor position in Toroidal Switched Reluctance Motor(TSRM). In this paper, low cost and robust characteristics of rotor position detection method are focused in order to compensate for disadvantage of general sensors. Search coils wound through the hole of the stator poles are used for detection of the rotor position in TSRM. Rotor position detection is achieved through electromotive force patterns induced by time-varying flux linkage in the search coils and then adequate phase is excited for drive. The initial rotor position estimation method is also described. The validity of the method is verified by experimental results.

A method for driving and position sensing of TSRM(Toroidal Switched Reluctance Motor) using the search coil is presented in this paper. Position information of the rotor is essential for SRM drives. The rotor position sensor such as an opto-interrupter or high performance encoder is generally used for the estimation of rotor position. However, these discrete position sensors not only add complexity and cost to the system but also tend to reduce the reliability of the drive system. In order to solve these problems, in the proposed method, rotor position detection is achieved using the voltage waveforms induced by the time varying flux linkage in the search coils, and then the appropriate phases are excited to drive the SRM. But the search coil EMF is generated only when the motor rotates. Therefore the rotor position sensing method at standstill is also suggested.

This paper presents the torque estimation scheme by Energy Conversion Method (ECM) that can be applied to the torque control of switched reluctance motor. There are two types of torque estimation method by ECM. One is the method using mechanical output energy and another is that using co-energy. When the torque is estimated by ECM, the estimated flux linkage can be obtained by voltage equation and Luenberger observer. By comparing the torque estimated by ECM with that be FEM, we verify the feasibility of the proposed torque estimation by ECM.

This paper investigates efficiency and power factor of Switched Reluctance Motor (SRM) using Finite Element Method considered driving circuit. The efficiency and power factor are calculated in Input terminal and Output terminal respectively. When calculating power factor, apparent power is obtained by effective voltage and current because SRM is operated by switching of driving circuit. Efficiency is calculated by mechanical output and active power. Finally, the characteristics of efficiency and power factor in three proposed models are compared due to the switching pattern.

This paper presents an analysis of the characteristics in switched reluctance motor (SRM). 2D finite element method (FEM) considering the iron saturation and the actual switching circuit of the SRM drive is applied for the dynamic analysis. The influence of the rotor shape on the radial force and torque ripple is investigated and the optimal shape of rotor pole is proposed to enhance the torque. The radial force characteristics acting on the surface of teeth is investigated by using the Maxwell's magnetic stress tensor method.

스위치드 릴럭턴스 전동기는 고출력, 고효율 및 직권전동기 구동특성 등으로 견인구동용으로 주목받고 있다. 그러나 전동기를 4상한 구동하기 위한 발전영역에서 제어는 쉽지 않다. 본 논문은 전류제한법에 의해 안정된 발전제동이 가능한 제어방식을 제안하였다. 전동기 구동시는 기준전류제한방식과 위상각 제어방식으로 속도제어를 행하고, 발전제동모드에서는 상전류가 발산하지 않는 조건을 산정하여서 이 값을 기준전류로 한 전류제한방식을 채택하였다. 시뮬레이션과 실험에 의해 제안한 방식의 타당성을 확인하였다.
