Abstract :
This paper investigates the application of a fuzzy algorithm for the speed control of switched reluctance motor (SRM) drives. For the purpose of performance simulation of closed loop SRM drive, its components are modelled in a systematic manner. A hysteresis current controlled midpoint converter is employed to feed four phase 8/6 SRM. Nonlinearity caused by magnetic saturation in the motor is also accounted for in the accurate and realistic simulation of the drive performance. Performance characteristics of an SRM drive are reported for starting dynamics and load perturbation, and are discussed in detail to highlight the use of a fuzzy logic controller
