High-performance synchronous reluctance motors in low-voltage applications

This paper will present a simplified control algorithm for synchronous reluctance machines (SynRM) in low-voltage applications. In this specific case, the entire drive train, including the battery, is considered. The difficulty of the non-linearity of the SynRM is estimated using an adapted model, based on the measured values. The model parameters have been determined through a repeatable method and confirmed by laboratory measurements.
