Abstract
To accurately predict motor performance, considering the effects of core losses is of great importance, especially at speeds much higher than the base where the core losses represent a considerable portion of the total drive losses. Neglecting the effects of core losses leads to an error in the switched reluctance motor (SRM) performance prediction. In this study, a previously developed non-linear SRM model with multiphase coupling is extended by considering the instantaneous effects of core losses on the SRM performance. Using the new model, the nature of these effects is determined. A comparison of the simulation results of the proposed, basic, and finite element method (FEM) model confirms the importance of considering the effects of core losses on motor performance. Besides the FEM model, the accuracy of the proposed model is verified by experiments.
