Abstract :
Switched reluctance motors are a promising candidate for advanced automotive drives of the next generation. The successful commercialization of SRM drives in automobiles depends highly on the developments of SRM design and control techniques. This paper addresses the control issues of SRMs, ranging from drive system structure, rotor position sensing and torque control. Both simulation studies and test results are presented for a 250 W SRM drive for automotive applications
