Abstract-Electrical drives are one of the major consumers of electrical energy and their penetration in the market is still growing. Hence, for many drive applications efficient, reliable and cost effective solutions have to be found. Switched reluctance drives (SRD) offer a potential solution when focus is mainly on cost and robustness. However, to benefit from the unique advantages of this machine type a deep understanding of its strongly non-linear behavior is required. After discussing some major differences to classic rotating field machines, this paper presents a broad overview of the state of the art of SRD taking into consideration all aspects relevant to machine modeling, design and control development process. Finally, applications on the market utilizing SRDs and the focus of current research is presented. After reading this paper the reader will be able to assess if this modern drive technology could be advantagous in a given application.

“…Moreover, the presence of doubly salient structure and the working principle of SRM imply that SRMs have highly nonlinear characteristics. The nonlinear operation makes it difficult to represent the SRM by an efficient linear model as it is done for induction machines and synchronous machines [4]. To study SRMs, it is imperative to use models that accurately incorporate the nonlinear characteristics and quantity behavior of the system to be simulated.…”

The usage of switched reluctance machines (SRMs) grows following the power electronics development. For this reason, a precise mathematical model is crucial for the development of SRM automatic control projects due to the nonlinearities caused by the machine topology and working principle. This chapter focuses on SRM characterization procedure, enlightening the nonlinear characteristics and the importance of the magnetization curves to accomplish precise automatic control of SRM. Different methods found in the literature are commented. The blocked rotor test is detailed, and an automatic acquirement system to obtain the SRM magnetization curves is reasoned. Magnetization curves are processed to create the mathematical model of the SRM. The computational algorithm used to process the acquired data is presented with the purpose of clarifying the production of the lookup tables used in the mathematical model. The developed mathematical model is implemented in Matlab/Simulink® environment. The system simulates the SRM operating both in motoring and generating mode. The mathematical simulation results are compared to experimental results. The developed model is accurate and may be used to study SRM behavior and control systems for SRM applications.

“…A switched reluctance motor (SRM) has some advantages, such as a simple structure, rotor robustness, the potential to operate at high temperature and torque-speed range, which can be competitive to PMSMs employed in EVs and HEVs [6][7][8][9][10]. Nevertheless, SRM has the problem with a high level of vibration and acoustic noise in general [11][12][13]. A synchronous reluctance machine (SynRM) is also a candidate for a rare-earth-free machine, but its torque density, power density, power factor and efficiency are inferior compared to PMSMs [14][15].…”

This paper proposes a permanent magnet (PM)-assisted synchronous reluctance machine (PMASynRM) using ferrite magnets with the same power density as rareearth PM synchronous motors employed in Toyota Prius 2010. A suitable rotor structure for high torque density and high power density is discussed with respect to the demagnetization of ferrite magnets, mechanical strength and torque ripple. Some electromagnetic characteristics including torque, output power, loss and efficiency are calculated by 2-D finite element analysis (FEA). The analysis results show that a high power density and high efficiency of PMASynRM are obtained by using ferrite magnets.
