Implementation and analysis of deflection switched reluctance generator for underwater flow generation applications

Abstract

This paper proposes a dual-stator switched reluctance generator (DSSRG) which can be applied to underwater power generation. DSSRG is connected with the propeller. When the propeller deflects, it can drive the generator to deflect for underwater power generation and improve the conversion efficiency of the motor. Firstly, taking the underwater propeller as the research object, the pressure and torque characteristics of the propeller at different deflection angles are studied by using CFX software. Then, the structure of DSSRG is modelled and analysed, and the voltage and current characteristics of DSSRG at different speeds and deflection angles are analysed. Finally, an underwater generator prototype is established to verify the rationality of the underwater DSSRG and the feasibility and stability of the power generation system.

A Review “The Research Status of Switched Reluctance Generator"

“…In [12], DSSRG (Dual stator reluctance generator) is observed due to its usage in an underwater generation. Utilizing DSSRG significantly boosts the generator's efficiency.…”

“…For simulation purposes, CFX software is used. In [12], modeling and analysis of DSSRG are also done.…”

“…The torque and pressure characteristics of the propeller are significant. These characteristics were observed at different angles of deflection, and this study was carried out using the software CFX [12]. A DSSRG was also modeled and analyzed.…”

“…At the different angles of deflection and speeds, current and voltage characteristics are observed. The prototype of the DSSRG is introduced to observe the stability and feasibility of the underwater generation system [12].…”
