Optimal excitation of a high speed switched reluctance generator
TL;DR: In this article, a new approach for controlling a switched-reluctance generator (SRG) is presented, where the control objective is to produce the required power using the excitation that produces the highest efficiency.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Adaptive flux weakening control of permanent magnet synchronous motors
Yilmaz Sozer,David Allan Torrey +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, an approach for adaptive control of the surface mounted permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) over its entire speed range is presented, which requires coordination of direct and quadrature axis currents.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sinusoidal Reluctance Machine With DC Winding: An Attractive Non-Permanent-Magnet Option
Tsarafidy Raminosoa,David Allan Torrey,Ayman Mohamed Fawzi EL-Refaie,Kevin Grace,Di Pan,Stefan Grubic,Karthik K. Bodla,Kum-Kang Huh +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, a DC-biased reluctance machine was proposed to achieve hybrid vehicle traction requirements of 55 kW peak at 2800 kW and 30 kW continuous over a speed range going from 2800 to 14,000 kW.
