A Switched Reluctance Motors Analyse using Permeance Network Method

This paper presents a permeance network model for use in the dynamic simulation of Switched Reluctance Motors. The modeling is based on the concept to divide the magnetic circuit of the machine in each zone which are described by her own reluctance, therefore we get an equivalent electric circuit and according to laws of ciruits analysis as law of meshing, so we calculate differents permeances in each part of the machine. The advantage in this method, we calculate the airgap permeance in different rotor position while using triangular method. it enables to see the influence in configuration and width of the airgap on currents and torque forms. The modeling procedures are described and simulation results are presented.
