Abstract
Switched reluctance motors (SRMs) received major interest in several domains, e.g., in electric vehicles. This interest is due to the many advantages of SRMs, including operation at a wide range of speeds, high performances, low cost, robustness to run under degraded conditions, and controllability. One of the major aspects in the design and implementation of controllers for SRMs is the estimation of the motor parameters. An accurate estimate of these parameters is a challenge due to the highly nonlinear behavior of SRMs in addition to their magnetic saturated operating mode to maximize the energy transfer. This paper aims at estimating the parameters of SRM by developing a new SRM model using an analytical technique. The proposed technique is based on a parallel connection of several Hammerstein models that have polynomial nonlinearity. The model is driven by a swept-sine signal, and then finite element method analysis is performed to estimate the SRM parameters. The effectiveness of the proposed method is highlighted by numerical simulation. All these simulations were performed using MATLAB/SIMULINK.
