A Simple Strategy for Parameters Identification of SRM Direct Instantaneous Torque Control.

This paper proposed a simple strategy for parameters identification of switched reluctance motor (SRM) direct instantaneous torque control. This strategy without rotor locking includes measuring and calculating steps. In the measuring step, flux linkage curves with current at three critical positions are obtained. At the intermediate position, flux linkage curve is measured under current chopper control (CCC). At the aligned and unaligned position, flux linkage curves are measured when the winding is given a voltage pulse. In the calculating step, the whole flux-linkage characteristics with current and position can be calculated based on the measured critical curves. Then torque curves are calculated for direct instantaneous torque control. Meanwhile, the i-Ψ loci curves during CCC operation are analyzed for identifying adjusting advance angle. In this way, the entire flux linkage characteristics and adjusting advance angle parameters under different operating area are obtained. This strategy is applied to a 7.5 kW 12/8 SRM for direct instantaneous torque control (DITC). Experiments have been carried out to verify the effectiveness and accuracy of the proposed method.
