Abstract
This paper presents a novel approach to current profiling for switched reluctance machines that eliminates torque ripple while inherently guaranteeing minimum copper losses, along with linear torque control. Minimization of copper losses increases machine efficiency, while eliminating torque ripple is the pre requisite for SRM use in applications such as traction vehicles. This paper presents theoretical optimal current profiles, initially without consideration of DC link voltage limitations. Utilizing a Genetic Algorithm in conjunction with current profiling limit envelopes, an optimized set of current profiles across the torque ripple free speed range of an exemplary 8/6 SRM is then created. The profiles characteristics are analyzed and compared with commonly used torque sharing function control to confirm the merits of the proposed method.
