Abstract :
In this paper, the investigation of the nonlinear dynamics of an adjustable speed switched reluctance motor (SRM) drive with voltage PWM regulation is carried out. The corresponding bifurcation diagrams and chaotic Poincare sections are presented. It shows that the system generally exhibits a period-doubling route to chaos
