Under the circumstances, a 12/14 BSRM with hybrid stator pole has been proposed due to its high output torque density and excellent decoupling characteristics between torque and suspension force. However, this motor has torque dead-zone, which leads to problems of self-start at some rotor positions and large torque ripple during normal operation. To solve the existing problems in the 12/14 type, an asymmetric rotor pole type BSRM is proposed. The structure and design process of the proposed motor is presented in detail. The characteristics of the proposed motor is analyzed and compared with that of the 12/14 type. Furthermore, prototype of the proposed structure is designed, manufactured and experimented. Finally, simulation and test results are illustrated and analyzed to prove the validity of the proposed structure.展开更多

However, the robustness speed of SRM is one of the major drawbacks, which greatly affects the performance of motor. Thus, the aim of this paper is to control the speed of SRM using H-infinity control strategy. This H-infinity control technique is stronger against robustness. In the proposed speed controller, the rotor position of the SRM is applied to the controller. The speed variation of the rotor is determined from the reference speed and applied to the controller as input. Then, the speed variation and the corresponding sensitivity function are determined. The sensitivity function determination is based on the input weight of the controller. The weight adjustment process is repeated until a stable speed condition is achieved. Then, the output of the proposed control technique is compared with the existing control technique and the robustness is analyzed. Here, the existing control techniques considered are proportional- integral (PI) controller and fuzzy logic controller (FLC)- based PI gain tuning. The proposed control strategy is simulated in MATLAB working platform and the control performance is analyzed.展开更多

文摘The switchless reluctance motor’s non-permanent magnet structure design ensures its high reliability in the marine environment;thus,it is a feasible solution for the generator of a sea wave power generation system.However,the corresponding thrust density and efficiency remain insufficient.This study focused on a new type of flat linear switched reluctance motor(LSRM),using the finite element software to establish a structural model,and optimized the design with the goal of improving the efficiency and energy density.The entropy method was adopted for sensitivity stratification to objectively select weights to avoid the influence of subjectively selected different proportional weights on the optimization results.Based on the entropy method,the sensitivity of different structural parameters was stratified,and the simulated annealing algorithm,response surface method,and single parameter scanning method were combined for optimization.Finally,the optimal structural size parameters of the motor were determined.Based on the two-dimensional finite element method,to simulate the electromagnetic performance of the reluctance motor under different operating conditions,such as thrust,loss,and efficiency,changes in motor performance before and after optimization were compared to verify the high power generation efficiency and energy density of the optimized linear motor.

文摘A novel 12 voltage vector control strategy for switched reluctance motors(SRM)with a T-type three-level converter is proposed in this study.Based on a causal analysis of torque ripple under the control of conventional six voltage vectors,six new voltage vectors are added for further reduction of torque ripple.An optimized control rule is adopted based on the division method of the 12 new voltage vectors.A zero-voltage vector is used to adjust the duration of the 12 voltage vectors,the time of which is varied at different parts of the vector sectors according to the torque error.In addition,the windings are connected in a delta configuration,therefore,the number of connections between the converter and SRM is reduced.Finally,the results of MATLAB/Simulink and RT-LAB are presented to verify the validity of the proposed scheme.
文摘This paper considered the implementation of a current control method for switched reluctance motors (SRMs) and presented a novel approach to the accurate online modeling of a three phase 6/4 SRM drive. A three phase 6/4 SRM is given theoretical calculation of inductance of the SRM model. The SRM was then tested in a Matlab/Simulink environment and numerically analyzed by using nonlinear 2D look-up tables created from its calculated flux linkage and static torque data. The simulation studied the hysteresis and voltage control strategies. The ideal waveform of stator current under the voltage-current condition and improved shape of rotor were proposed.
文摘The switched reluctance motor (SRM) is applied in various industrial applications due to its profitable advantages. However, the robustness speed of SRM is one of the major drawbacks, which greatly affects the performance of motor. Thus, the aim of this paper is to control the speed of SRM using H-infinity control strategy. This H-infinity control technique is stronger against robustness. In the proposed speed controller, the rotor position of the SRM is applied to the controller. The speed variation of the rotor is determined from the reference speed and applied to the controller as input. Then, the speed variation and the corresponding sensitivity function are determined. The sensitivity function determination is based on the input weight of the controller. The weight adjustment process is repeated until a stable speed condition is achieved. Then, the output of the proposed control technique is compared with the existing control technique and the robustness is analyzed. Here, the existing control techniques considered are proportional- integral (PI) controller and fuzzy logic controller (FLC)- based PI gain tuning. The proposed control strategy is simulated in MATLAB working platform and the control performance is analyzed.

文摘The electrical-magnetic characteristics of a Switched Reluctance Motor(SRM)exhibit highly nonlinear relationshipwith respect to the rotor position and excitation current,which poses challenges for both precise static measurements and exact calculation of these properties in real-time control.To guarantee that an in-lab test result can be used in the application,firstly a measurementmethod is proposed to characterize the SRM's electromagnetic properties such as the flux linkage,magnetic co-energy,phase inductance and electromagnetic torque on the basis of an installed SRM control circuitry and half-bridge power converter.By this means the characterization process is equivalent to the online observation in its results.Secondly,a theoreticalmodel is built to discriminate the physical meaning between the incremental inductance and the phase inductance,which is the origin of other relevant parameters.This helps to guide the correct utilization of the characterization result.Thirdly an in-situ cross-validation experimentation according to the magnetizing and demagnetizing status measurement verifies the feasibilities and accuracy of the proposed inductance measuring method,which avoid a dubious FEM-based comparison between the numerical calculation and experimental results.Cross-validation experiment shows that the proposed in-situ characterization scheme obtains an accurate full-range electromagnetic properties.The proposed methodology breaks the barrier between the in-lab measurement and on-line utilization of the SRM parameters,highlighting the merits that it completely includes the in-situ factors and replicates the operational scenario without the need of specifically designed instrumentation,which is especially suitable for rapid field characterization for high power motors.
文摘Power generation becomes the need of developed, developing and under developed countries to meet their increasing power requirements. When affordability increases their requirement of power increases, this happens when increased per capita consumption. The existing power scenario states that highest power is produced using firing of coals called thermal energy. A high efficiency Switched Reluctance Generator (SRG) based high frequency switching scheme to enhance the output for grid connectivity is designed, fabricated and evaluated. This proposed method generates the output for the low wind speed. It provides output at low speed because of multi-level DC-DC converter and storage system. It is an efficient solution for low wind power generation. The real time readings and results are discussed.
