Abstract
In mobile applications such as eletric vehicles, weight and installation space are the primary limiting factors that affect the system efficiency and consequently the driving range. Reusing the machine windings of an electrical machine as inductors, e. g. in DC-DC converters for onboard chargers, saves weight and space. However, currents in the machine windings when operating as DC-DC converter can result in undesired torque ripple generated by the machine. Therefore, stable rotor positions of a switched reluctance machine have to be found to prevent it from rotating in DC-DC converter operation mode. In this study, stable rotor positions for a wide range of current distributions are determined, enabling flexibility in the choice of currents. A method to analyze such stable equilibrium positions for switched reluctance motors is presented. The proposed method is used to determine the stable positions that facilitate flexible current distribution between phases. Moreover, locus curves are calculated, simulated, and measured to illustrate and evaluate stable rotor positions for the various current distributions.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
