“…In Gan et al, 20 the phase voltage is boosted with the power converter that has been presented, but there is no reduction of torque ripple. The asymmetric tri port neutral point clamped diode‐based converter‐fed SR motor has been presented in Peng et al 21 The front end quasi impedance source converter has been implemented in Damarla and Venmathi 22 for inherent boosting of DC link voltage in SR motor drive. For EVs, a new modular converter multilevel SR motor is implemented in Gan et al 23 But the cost of the drive increases due to the complex circuitry.…”

SummaryElectric vehicles (EVs) have gained a forward approach for achieving the low carbon economy and green transportation. Switched reluctance (SR) motor‐based propulsion mechanisms have been popularly used for EVs due to the wide speed range capability. The conventional phase current regulation technique does not give the satisfactory reduction of torque ripple in SR motor drive, particularly for automotive applications. To overcome the issue, a frontend boost converter (FEBC) is proposed to realize the quick excitation and demagnetization. Initially, the problems associated with the conventional asymmetric half bridge converter are investigated at various levels of phase current. The various operating modes of proposed drive system with FEBC are explained in detail. The proposed FEBC has the significant benefit of being able to provide variable boosting voltages based on the dynamic behavior of the SR motor. The phase voltages are increased during the fast magnetization and demagnetization modes due to the inclusion of FEBC, and hence, quick magnetization and demagnetization have been achieved. The proposed FEBC drive system has been simulated through the Matlab Simulink toolbox. The experimental results are also carried out in order to validate the simulation results.

“…The advantage of this converter is that generating mode of operation is possible and an independent phase current control has also been achieved, but it has very complex circuitry. The quasi impedance source converter has been used as a FEC for analyzing its steady state and dynamic performance of the four phase SR motor drive and is implemented in Damarla and Mahendran (2022). The three port FEC-based SR motor for PHEVs has been developed in Hu et al (2018).…”

Purpose In this paper, a new front end converter (FEC) topology has been proposed for the switched reluctance (SR) motor drive. This study aims to present the performance analysis of FEC-based SR motor drive using various types of control schemes like conventional proportional integral (PI) controller, fuzzy logic controller (FLC) and fuzzy-tuned proportional integral controller (Fuzzy-PI). Design/methodology/approach The proposed FEC-based SR motor drive with various control strategies is derived for the torque ripple minimization and speed control. Findings The steady state and the dynamic response of the FEC-based SR motor drive are analyzed using three different controllers under change in speed and loading conditions. The Fuzzy-PI-based control scheme improves the dynamic response of the system when compared with the FLC and the conventional PI controller. Originality/value The hardware prototype has been implemented for the FEC-based SR motor drive by using the Xilinx SPARTAN 6 FPGA processor. The experimental verification has been conducted and the results have been measured under steady state and dynamic conditions.
