Description of  Fundamentals of Switched Reluctance Motor and Drive

This book explains fundamentals of the switched reluctance motor (SRM) and drive. Starting from the benefits and working principle it covers all necessary details about angular parameters, converters and their control. This book will be helpful to understand the working, operation and control of the SRM. This book will also be beneficial to the research scholar as it includes mathematical modelling techniques of the SRM. The main objective of this book is to boost the research in the field of the Switched Reluctance Motor Drive by clearing all doubts about its capability and limitations. This book is recommended for the engineering students of the electrical engineering, power electronics engineering, electronics and communication engineering and power system engineering branch. This book will be helpful to the students who want to start the research career in the field of the SRM drive and its application. This book is suitable for the engineering and science students who want to understand the working of the Switched Reluctance Motor and their control. However, this book does not cover control systems and power electronics in more detail as it focuses on the fundamental working and operation of the SRM. Readers may need the basic knowledge about the control system to understand some concepts more clearly like closed-loop operation and speed control system. Furthermore, basic knowledge of the power electronics devices may help to understand the operation of the SRM more clearly. Basic knowledge of engineering mathematics including derivation and integration is required to understand the mathematical derivation of the torque speed equations of the SRM. However, the working principle of the switched reluctance motor can be understood easily from this book by most readers without any prerequisites.
