Problem statement:The Switched Reluctance Motor (SRM) is an old member of the Electric Machines Family. It's simple structure, ruggedness and inexpensive manufacturing capability make it more attractive for Industrial applications. Now, the applications of switched reluctance motors in various industrial fields are tried by many engineers. However, switched reluctance motors are not used so far in submersible underwater motor for agriculture purposee. The torque developed by an SRM is dependent on the change of flux-linkage and rotor position. The flux linkage characteristic of the motor is required to make the control circuit. Since the SRM is non-linear in nature, estimation and calculation of the flux linkage characteristics is very difficult. Approach: With the flux tube method concept a simple algorithm is being developed in a MATLAB. ANSYS Software is used to determine the flux distribution at various rotor positions. Results: The aligned and unaligned flux linkage values for theoretical calculation at a current of 7 A is 72.7 mwb and 13.79 mwb respectively. With FEA simulation the obtained value is 92.73 mwb and 19.175. Conclusion: In this and, a simplified method for the determination of flux linkage characteristics of submersible SRM using MATLAB has been presented. The obtained value has been validated with the ANSYS FEM method. the calculated unaligned and aligned inductance values of a 4-phase, 3 hp, 220 V Submersible SRM using simplified MATLAB method very much matches with the ANSYS FEM Method.
