SRM and variable drive systems using SRMs are receiving considerable attention from industry. Successful realization of an SRM variable drive system demands an understanding of the converter and controller subsystems and their integration with the machine. This book provides knowledge of SRMs, power converters and their use with both sensor-based and sensorless controllers. Switched Reluctance Motor Drives enables both students and engineers to learn all aspects of SRM drive systems and appreciate the interdependence of the various subsystems in performance optimization. The author develops the analysis and design of SRMs from first principles, introduces a wide variety of power converters available for driving the SRM, and systematically presents both low- and high-performance controllers.
