Principle of operationSR motor with 8 stator poles and 6 rotor poles.
The stator and rotor poles seek minimum reluctance position.
Hence when current flows in SR motor stator phase, produces a magnetic field , the nearest rotor will tend to position itself with the direction of magnetic field- Aligned position.

Inductance variation and torque distribution

![Page 11: Switched Reluctance](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022102406/55cf9966550346d0339d31c1/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Inductance and corresponding torque
![Page 12: Switched Reluctance](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022102406/55cf9966550346d0339d31c1/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Inductance of each phase increases -remains constant –increases cyclically-depending on the amount of overlap between the stator pole and rotor tooth.
Permeance directly proportional to the overlap.
It is necessary to force a current in the winding when the rotor tooth about to enter the stator pole so that i2 (dL/dθ) is high.
Hence essential to know the precise position of the rotor at any instant of time.
![Page 13: Switched Reluctance](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022102406/55cf9966550346d0339d31c1/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Region A- begins at rotor angle θ1- first edge of the rotor meets the first edge of the stator pole. Inductance rise in a linear fashion until the poles of the rotor and stator completely overlapped at an angle θ2.
![Page 14: Switched Reluctance](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022102406/55cf9966550346d0339d31c1/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Region B- from θ2 to θ3.Inductance remains constant because rotor pole completely overlapped by stator pole.
At rotor angle θ3, the edge of the rotor pole reaches stator pole overlap region. The area of overlap will begin to decrease.
![Page 15: Switched Reluctance](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022102406/55cf9966550346d0339d31c1/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Region C- when the rotor moves past θ3 , the rotor pole leading edge begins to leave the pole overlap region, and region C begins.
Inductance begins to linearly decrease, until at θ4,the rotor pole has completely left the stator pole face overlap region. Inductance minimum once more.
![Page 16: Switched Reluctance](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022102406/55cf9966550346d0339d31c1/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Region D- rotor and stator have no overlap-inductance remains constant-at the minimum level.
![Page 17: Switched Reluctance](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022102406/55cf9966550346d0339d31c1/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Torque can be controlled to give a resultant which is positive(motoring) or negative(generating action) by switching the coil on and off at appropriate inductance cycle.

Low to medium speed drives
For motoring-square pulse of current flowing only during the increasing inductance region.
In practice, current waveform not a square pulse-inductance of stator phase winding would delay the rise and fall of the current at pulse edges.
Closely approximated using hysteresis current control(chopping mode control).

During time of conduction (between turn-on and turn-off angles)- current maintained within hysteresis band by switching on and off of the phase voltage by the inverter when the phase current reaches maximum and minimum hysteresis band.
Turn on region (angle between the turn-on angle Өon and turn –off angle Өoff .Өon placed little before rising inductance region.Өoff placed little before maximum inductance region

The direction of torque independent of sign of current.
So the current may be unipolar. This mode of operation has lower iron losses and simpler.
Controller must apply unipolar current pulses ,relative to the rotor position.

Firing angle variation with speed
At the initial speed,firing angles are turn-on angle,θ0 and turn-off angle θc.
Θc - θ0 –conduction angle or dwell angle
As the speed increases, angles are both advanced till the speed reaches the reference speed. At this speed firing angles are maximum θ0R and θcR .
If the speed exceeds the reference speed, firing angles are suddenly retarded to fixed values θ0B and θcB .
