A number of power electronic converter circuits exist for switched reluctance motor (SRM)
drives which are generally applicable to most loads. A larger number of circuits exist which …

This paper presents a novel passive boost power converter and its analysis for a three-
phase switched reluctance (SR) drive. The proposed simple passive circuit adds three …

This paper presents a method of enhancing the performance of a four-phase switched
reluctance motor by using capacitors to produce additional supply voltage during the rise …

(57) ABSTRACT A reluctance machine includes a stator having N stator poles and a rotor
having N rotor poles. Each stator pole has a stator winding, and the windings of the N stator …

As generally recognized, the driving performance of SRM at higher speed will be degraded
due to the effects of back electromagnetic force (EMF). In this paper, a multi-level converter …

High speed drive systems are much interested in the industrial application such as blower,
compressor, pump and spindle due to the compact size and high efficiency. In recent, the …

The most important drawback of the switched reluctance motor (SRM) lies in its low
efficiency at high speed. In fact, with a fixed DC source voltage, when the speed rises, the …
