Abstract:

A new nonlinear lumped parameter model is proposed for a switched reluctance motor (SRM) with core losses. The components of the model and their origin are justified by finite-element simulations and experimental tests. The winding resistance and the leakage inductance are analyzed by different methods taken from the literature, and a new algorithm is proposed to overcome their shortcomings such as the nonbiunivocal flux linkage versus current relationship. In contrast to previous works, the nonlinear elements for modeling the magnetic core, such as the incremental magnetizing inductance and the core-loss resistance, are determined together and simultaneously for each value of the phase current and the rotor position. The performance of the new model and the methodology proposed for estimating its components are analyzed for different excitation types and rotor positions. The core losses are evaluated by the proposed model and by two well-known predictive models, and the results are compared to illustrate the suitability of the former. Finally, the dynamic behavior of the model, acting as an ac self-excited generator, is considered.
