Abstract
Switched reluctance machines (SRMs) are considered as serious candidates for starter/alternator (S/A) systems in more electric cars. Robust performance in the presence of high temperature, safe operation, offering high efficiency, and a very long constant power region, along with a rugged structure contribute to their suitability for this high impact application. to enhance these qualities, we have developed key technologies including sensor less operation over the entire speed range and closed-loop torque and speed regulation. the present paper offers an in-depth analysis of the drive dynamics during motoring and generating modes of operation. These findings will be used to explain our control strategies in the context of the S/A application. Experimental and simulation results are also demonstrated to validate the practicality of our claims.
