“…In matters of the comparison of the electric machines (EM) for different applications, the bibliographic research that we have done allowed us to establish some statistics as shown in Fig. 2 [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14].…”

“…On the other hand, the synchronous generators are more expensive because of the presence of permanent magnet in them. This has permitted an eventual utilization switched reluctance generators (SRG), which is characterized by simple structure, robustness, low cost, absence of a speed multiplication system [9][10].…”

“…The progress achieved during the last two decades in magnetic materials, electronic devices, calculation methods and other software simulations have enabled designers to improve the performance and costs of electric machines (EM). This is particularly the case of conventional machines such as synchronous machines and induction machines (IM) although innovative structures such as permanent magnet synchronous machine (PMSM) and switched reluctance machine (SRM) for special applications (wind generators, EV ...) [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11]. A comparative study between different types of machines is complicated but remains a challenge.…”

This paper is a synthesis of various research work performed on innovative structures for electrical machines (EM) responding to new performance requirements and applications. A presentation of the various statistical applications of EM will be made with various criteria. It will establish an initial comparison between the possibilities of both types of machines, namely the permanent magnet synchronous machine (PMSM) and switched reluctance machine (SRM), since more competing by conventional machines such as induction machines. It will be completed by a performance comparison study using a torque density criterion. Finally, an analytical-numerical method for PMSM and SRM structures design will be proposed.

Fault-Tolerant SRM Drive with a Diagnosis Method Based on the Entropy Feature Approach

et al. 2020

The power electronic converter design is essential for the operation of the switched reluctance motor (SRM). Thus, a fault-tolerant power converter is fundamental to ensure high reliability and extend the drive operation. To achieve fault tolerance, fault detection and diagnosis methods are critical in order to identify, as soon as possible, the failure mode of the drive. To provide such capability, it is proposed in this paper a new fault-tolerant power converter scheme combined with a fault detection method regarding the most common power semiconductors failures in SRM drives. The fast and reliable proposed diagnosis method is based on the entropy theory. Based on this theory, normalized indexes (diagnostic variables) are created, which are independent from the load and speed of the motor. Through this method, it is possible to identify the faulty leg, as well as the type of power semiconductor fault. To test and evaluate the proposed solution several laboratory experiments were carried out using a 2 kW four-phase 8 / 6 SRM.

“…Recently, SR motors have been considered as the engine of electromechanical actuators (EMAs) devised to replace the well established hydraulic and pneumatic actuators in More Electric Aircrafts (MEAs), [4]- [6]. Such an interest is related to matter that SR motors allow direct exploitation of fault tolerant concepts.…”

This paper presents a five-phase switched reluctance motor designed to satisfy the requirements of flap actuators in medium size aircrafts. In normal operation the machine operates with two-phases conducting simultaneously but it is designed to satisfy the load specifications also with one or two phases faulted. The finite-element studies aiming to predict the faulty mode performance are presented. Experimental tests on the motor prototype are included, which confirm its capability to satisfy the planned degraded modes of operation.
