switched reluctance motors and drives are increasingly used in industrial applications due to their robust mechanical structure, low inertia and reduction in the rotor losses. As the motor speed increase turn on angle must be advanced to build up phase current. When C-dump converter is applied to switched reluctance motor, the capacitance of dump C has to have proper value. In this paper advance angle for a switched reluctance motor and capacitance of dump C are investigated. Then proper advance angle and the capacitance of dump-C are propose for the industrial low voltage SR motor.

This paper presents an improved C-Dump converter system for switched reluctance motors(SRM). The proposed C-Dump converter derived from the conventional converter for SRM. The proposed converter could overcome the limitation of the conventional C-Dump converter, and could reduce the whole cost of the SRM system since the voltage stress of the dump switch $T_d$ is reduced to $V_{dc}$ when compared with $2V_{dc}$ for the conventional C-Dump converter. The attractive features of the proposed converters are; high-efficient and low-cost, elimination of dump inductor, simple control strategy, smaller size arid light weight. The proposed converter is able to be fast magnetization by $2V_{dc}$, which is sum of the input voltage and charging voltage of the dump capacitor. Also, this topology has many advantages such as freewheeling of phase winding without complex control, reduction of current ripple, reduction of torque ripple, and reduction of switching frequency. Simulation demonstrates the good performance of the converter.

This paper compared a Modified C-dump converter and energy efficient converter topologies, derived from the conventional C-dump converter, for switched reluctance motor (SRM) drives. The proposed topologies overcome the limitations of the conventional C-dump converter, and could reduce the whole cost of the SRM drive. Also, the above converters have simple control requirements; and allow the motor phase current to freewheel during chopping mode. Specially, the voltage ratings of the dump capacitor and some of the switching devices in the proposed an Energy efficient C-dump converter is reduced to the supply voltage ($V_{dc}$) level compared to twice the supply voltage ($2V_{dc}$) in the conventional C-dump converter. Simulation and experimental results of the proposed converters are presented and verified.

스위치드 릴럭턴스 전동기 (Switched Reluctance Motor, SRM)는 전류의 크기와 회전자와 고정자의 상대적 위치에 따라 인덕턴스가 매우 비선형적으로 변하는 특성이 있고, 토크는 이 인덕턴스의 기울기에 비례하여 발생하기 때문에 비선형 토크 특성을 가지며 토크 맥동이 크고 소음이 심한 단점도 있다. 이러한 문제점들을 고려하고 경제성과 회로의 간단화를 위하여 기존의 비대칭 컨버터 (Asymmetric Bridge Converter)에서 효율과 성능을 개선할 수 있는 구동용 토폴로지(Topology)에 대한 연구들이 많이 진행되었다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 SRM 구동용 토폴로지로 적용하여 사용되고 있는 각 컨버터들을 비교, 분석함으로써 성능을 확인하고자 한다. 비교, 분석에 적용된 구동용 컨버터는 가장 널리 사용되고 있는 비대칭 브리지 컨버터 (Asymmetric Bridge Converter)와 C-dump 컨버터 형태의 구조를 가진 Conventional C-dump, Modified C-dump, Energy efficient C-dump, 공진형 C-dump 컨버터, 그리고 일반 전동기의 범용으로 사용되고 있는 6-Switch 인버터이다.

This paper deals with the analysis of switched reluctance motor drives for different drive circuit topologies used in automobile. So we attempt to improve the weaknesses associated with the asymmetric bridge converter in the limited internal environment of automotive application. Two kinds of c-dump converters are tested in terms of dump capacitor voltage, speed response according to the variation of advance angle and efficiency for the radiator cooling-fan drive of an automobile. They enable more economical and efficient converter topology for automobile industries. This paper describes the performance characteristics of 12V-250W-3000rpm SRM drives for automotive application. Computer simulation and experiment results are then presented to verify the performance of the two kinds of c-dump converters.

현재 차량에 사용되는 전동기는 대부분 직류전동기로, 12V또는 24V 밧데리 전원으로 구동되는 엔진 냉각 팬, 오일 펌프 및 공조시스템 등에 적용되고 있다 그러나 직류전동기의 경우 효율, 수명, 내구성에 취약한 단점을 지니고 있다. 따라서, 자동차용 전동기로써 구조가 간단하고 내구성이 우수한 SRM(Switched Reluctance Motor)의 관심이 매우 높아지고 있다. SRM을 차량용으로 사용하기 위해서는 고성능 제어와 12V 전윈 구동에 모두 우수한 성능을 갖는 구동 컨버터의 선정이 매우 중요하다. 여러 종류의 구동 컨버터는 각각의 장단점을 갖고 있어, 차량에 적용시 여러 가지 제약 조건이 따른다. 일반적으로 많이 사용되고 있는 비대칭 컨버터는 제어성능이 우수하지만, 각 상당 스위치가 가장 많이 필요하고, 상당 2개의 스위치에 의한 전압강하가 발생하는 단점을 지니고 있어, 차량의 12V 전원에는 부적절하다 구조가 간단하고, 스위치 수가 적은 컨버터로 차량의 환경과 여러 요구조건을 충족시킬 수 있는 컨버터로써 Modified C-dump 컨버터와 Energy efficient C-dump 컨버터를 선정하였다. 제안된 두 컨버터를 시뮬레이션과 실험을 통해 비교 검토하여, 차량용 SRM 구동 컨버터로써 Energy efficient C-dump 컨버터의 우수한 제어성능을 증명하였다.

The speed at which the SRM (Switched Reluctance Motor) makes a transition from chopping control to single pulse operation. (i.e., low speed to high speed operation). It is unsatisfied with performance at all operational regimes. In this paper, the operational performance of SRM can be improved by using current hysteresis control method. This method maintains a generally flat current waveform. At the high speed, the current chopping capability is lost due to the development of the back-EMF. Therefore SRM operates in single pulse mode. By using zero-current switching and zero-voltage switching technique, the stress of power switches can be reduce in chopping mode. When the commutation from one phase winding to another phase winding, the current can be zero as fast as possible in this period because several times negative voltage of DC-source voltage produce in phase winding. This paper is compared to performance based on energy efficient C-dump converter topology and the proposed resonant C-dump converter topology. Simulation and experimental results are presented to verify the effectiveness of the proposed circuit.

토크, 효율 등 전동기의 최대특성을 얻기 위해 모든 전동기는 각 전동기 특성에 맞게 설계된 범용인버터를 기본적으로 사용한다. 그러나 최근 연구 결과들을 살펴보면 BLDC 범용인버터인 6-스위치 인버터를 이용한 SRM 구동 연구, 3상 BLDC 전동기를 4-스위치 인버터를 이용한 구동 연구사례들을 살펴볼 수 있다. 따라서 기존 범용인버터에서 벗어나 각 전동기를 구동할 시킬 수 있는 구동 및 제어에 대한 여러 방법에 대해 접근하여 연구 방법들을 모색할 수 있다. 이러한 연구 경향에 맞춰 본 논문에서는 SRM 구동용 컨버터인 C- dump 형태의 컨버터를 BLDC 전동기의 구동 드라이버로 적용하여 이에 대한 특성과 가능성에 관해 연구하였다.
