Analysis and Performance Prediction of 8/6 Pole Switched Reluctance Motor with New Converter Topology for lectric Vehicle

Saranraj U, B.Hemamalini

Switched reluctance motors (SRM) have many advantages in the field of electric vehicle. In this paper, a new and cost effective modified single-switch-per-phase converter for SRM drives is proposed. The most commonly used Converter for SRM is asymmetric bridge converter, but it has some disadvantages like poor utilization, size and cost. This paper presents the proposed converter, which performs better utilization than the asymmetric bridge converter. The requirements of switched reluctance motor drives on converters and the operation of the proposed converter are analyzed and discussed. The performance of proposed converter topology is verified through MATLAB simulation.
