A Design of Position Control System of Switched Reluctance Motor

스위치드 릴럭턴스 전동기의 위치제어 시스템 설계

This paper presents an implementation of position control system of Switched Reluctance Motor (SRM) using digital hysteresis controller. Although SRM possess several advantages including simple structure and high efficiency, the control drive system using power semiconductor device is required to drive this motor. The control drive system increases overall system cost. To overcome this problem and increase the application of SRM, it is needed to develope the servo drive system of SRM. So, the position control system of 1 Hp SRM is developed and evaluated by adaptive switching angle control. The position/speed response characteristics and voltage/current waveforms are presented to prove the capability of SRM for a servo drive application. Moreover, digital hysteresis current controller is developed and evaluated by experimental testing for the purpose of system developmental cost reduction.
