Abstract

This paper explores mathematical modeling techniques of switched reluctance motor. Several interesting techniques have been compared for different requirement. Embedded function has been developed in MATLAB to map the magnetic nonlinearity of the motor. A magnetic characteristic derived from the developed function is compared with the actual magnetic characteristics of the motor. Furthermore, methods to transpose ‘Simulink’ SRM model to ‘simpowersystem’ have been explored and compared.
