Abstract :
The control characteristics of switched reluctance motor (SRM) drives are analyzed for operation of the motor in the linear region of its magnetic characteristics. After reviewing the motor operation, the authors consider the current-fed and voltage SRM drives. For both types of drives, the control variables and the related ranges are identified, the relationships between such variables and the average motor torque are calculated, and the torque capability is found. The basic schemes for the speed control of the SRM drives are also formulated
