Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of motor control and relates to a switched reluctance motor modeling method based on polynomial Fourier series. Background Art

[0002] With the advancement of technology, many aircraft systems driven by hydraulic, mechanical, and pneumatic devices have been converted to electric drives. While simplifying aircraft powertrains, this also places stringent demands on the stability and robustness of the drive motors. The switched reluctance motor, with its simple structure, excellent stability, and high-temperature resistance, has made it a strong contender in the aviation motor market.

[0003] High-performance, robust control of switched reluctance motors (SRMs) requires precise modeling of their torque and current characteristics. However, the nonlinearity caused by magnetic circuit saturation, eddy currents, and hysteresis effects in SRMs makes mathematical simulation of their magnetic torque and current characteristics difficult. Traditionally, these characteristics have been described using data tables. During experiments with SRM speed control, the applicant discovered that the data tables used for SRM modeling took up a significant amount of storage space, increasing the motor's control costs and posing challenges to large-scale practical application. Summary of the Invention

[0004] Technical problems to be solved

[0005] To overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies, this paper proposes a switched reluctance motor (SRM) modeling method based on a polynomial Fourier series. The method first measures the SRM's flux linkage, rotor position, current, and torque characteristics, constructing a traditional data table. This data table is then described using a polynomial Fourier series model. This replaces the traditional complex and cumbersome data table with a small number of coefficients, allowing the SRM to be modeled using a polynomial Fourier series equation. This method not only effectively reduces storage space usage but also achieves high accuracy, thus promoting the practical application of SRMs.
