Abstract

The aim of this study is to investigate and determine the effect of accounting for the non-uniform distribution of magnetic induction (by detailing the stator tooth model) on the calculation results of magnetic losses in the stator teeth of a switched reluctance motor in quasi-steady-state modes. To achieve this goal, dependencies of phase flux linkage, electromagnetic torque of the motor, and additionally, dependencies of the root mean square values of magnetic inductions in stator tooth elements on the rotor angle and current have been determined using the finite element method. An investigation of dynamic modes of the switched reluctance motor based on an improved simulation model has been conducted at various values of constant load torque. Dependencies of magnetic inductions over time for each stator tooth element for the studied quasi-steady-state operating modes have been obtained. Magnetic losses have been calculated, taking into account the maxima of the temporal dependencies of root mean square values of magnetic induction in stator tooth elements. The most important outcome is a quantitative assessment of the influence of the non-uniform distribution of magnetic induction on the calculated value of magnetic losses based on the detailing of the stator tooth model in the operational modes of the switched reluctance motor compared to the traditional approach. The significance of the work lies in developing an approach to refining the calculation of magnetic losses by considering local saturation in the magnetic circuit during the operation of the switched reluctance motor.
