Abstract

In this paper, the controller’s tuning and performance of a speed controller prototype for switched reluctance motor is presented using significant experimental tests. The system uses an on-line learning mechanism to acquire and modify, if needed, the “good” fuzzy control rules. Experimental essays are analyzed and discussed in order to reveal some advantages of having a learning speed controller for the SR machine, and also the drawbacks that the use of using these controllers can introduce to the drive system and possible ways to overcome them.
