DiRenzo This report describes the basic operation of switched reluctance motors (SRMs) and demonstrates how a TMS320F240 DSP-based SRM drive from Texas Instruments (TI]) can be used to achieve a wide variety of control objectives. The first part of the report offers a detailed review of the operation and characteristics of SRMs. The advantages and disadvantages of this type of motor are cited. The second part of the report provides an example application of a four-quadrant, variable speed SRM drive system using a shaft position sensor. The example has complete hardware and software details for developing an SRM drive system using the TMS320F240. The SRM operation is described, along with the theoretical basis for designing the various control algorithms. The example can be used as a baseline design which can be easily modified to accommodate a specific application. This report contains material previously released in the Texas Instruments application report Developing an SRM Drive System Using the TMS320F240 (literature number SPRA420), and has been updated for inclusion in the Application Design Kit (ADK) for switched reluctance motors.

Miller The fundamental theory of the switched reluctance motor is presented with a number of new equations. It is used to show how the practical development of a design calculation should proceed, and this leads to a discussion of physical characteristics required to achieve satisfactory performance and to reduce acoustic noise. The paper makes a few generic observations on the characteristics of successful products that use switched reluctance motors. It is written at a basic engineering level and makes no attempt to apply sophisticated optimization theory.

Performance is based on the ability to provide each phase with pulses of current during the torque productive pends ( the zone of increasuig inductance ) by selecting precietermined switching angles. The control system maintains the desired speed in the face of variations of the load or the rnotor parameters. Variable speed can be achieved using this control system. After reviewing the operating principles of the SRM and its different control strategics, modeling has ken done under the assurnption of linear magnetic characteristics. The torque characteristics and the dymmic differen tial equa tions. nevertheless. are nonhear. The control structure consists of a fdforward controuer and a propoflional-integral speed controller. A hysteresis controller is also employed t~ maintain the current within a pre-set band based on a defmed algorithm. Stability of the nonlinear control system has been investigated using the second method of Lyapunov and the method of Krasovski In this thesis, two control schemes; narnely current-source switched reluctance motor ( CSSRM ) and voltage-source switched reluctance motor ( VSSRM ) are designed, analyzed, and simulated under different working conditions using the Matiab software package to investigate the steady-state operation and dynamic response of the system. The rnotor performance and simulation results are discussed. . . Fri, 01 Aug 2014 00:00:00 GMT http://hdl.handle.net/123456789/2518 2014-08-01T00:00:00Z
