Minimization of Torque Ripple in Switched Reluctance Motor Drive – A Review

  • Conference paper
Advanced Electrical and Electronics Engineering

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Electrical Engineering ((LNEE,volume 87))

Abstract

In Switched Reluctance Motor, the basic control issue is production of ripple free torque. The presence of ripple in the torque leads to production of undesirable noise and undesirable vibration during the operation. The static characteristics along with the magnetization pattern of the individual phases dictate the amount of torque ripple during operation. Concept of Electronic Control approaches for dynamic torque ripples are extensively reviewed and presented.
