Speed Closed-Loop Control for Switched Reluctance Motor with Segmental Rotors Based on Angle Position Regulation

Abstract:

This paper describes the structure and the magnetic circuit of switched reluctance motor with segmental rotors (SSRM), and presents the control strategy of speed closed-loop by regulating the turn-on angle of the main switches in the power converter based on PI algorithm. The turn-off angle is optimized according to different speeds of the motor. The deviation of the rotor speed is the input control parameter of PI controller, and the turn-on angle is the output control parameter. The strategy of current chopping control is used for comparing with angle position control when rotor speed is high. Both the simulation and experimental results show the well transient, steady performance and robustness of SSRM based on the angle position controller.
