Description:
This book provides, with a modern approach, a clear accurate and
comprehensive analysis of all aspects related to the Switched Reluctance
Machines (SRM). It includes the construction and steady state operations
of SRM as motor and as generator, the advanced speed control of SRM, the
problem of the torque ripples and acoustic noise and vibrations and
their minimization. Most of the chapters of the book are centered on a
particular tool applicable to switched reluctance machines. Besides the
general discussion on the tool, detailed modeling and a control strategy
for that system are discussed. The chapters are not limited to modeling
and control systems of different types of tools, but incorporate
extensive simulation results that will be very helpful to students. For
the simulation analysis, the most popular digital simulator for electric
power system (Matlab® toolbox) is used. The book is written in a
somewhat tutorial style suitable for engineering students and
professionals who are working with switched reluctance machines. It is
also intended to be used by anyone with a good background in mathematics
and physics who wants to be an expert in the field of switched
reluctance machines.
Audience:
The text can be used for educational, research, industrial and applied
purposes.
