Abstract

Comparative calculations of electromagnetic field distributions in double salient switched reluctance motor based on the Finite Element Method (FEM) and the Reluctance Network Method (RNM) are presented. It has been shown that the results of calculations and measurements are in good agreement. The RNM can be successfully applied to torque calculations, while a simple discretization of the motor cross-section is used.

Übersicht

Bei der Berechnung des zweidimensionalen magnetischen Feldes in einer über Umrichter gespeisten Maschine mit doppelseitig ausgeprägten Polen wird die Reluktanznetz-Methode zum Vergleich mit der Finite-Elemente-Methode angewandt. Beim Vergleich mit den gemessenen Werten zeigt sich eine gute Übereinstimmung. Es wird gezeigt, daß die Reluktanznetz-Methode bei einfacher Diskretisierung zur Bestimmung des Drehmomentes genutzt werden kann.
